Study of podzolization process under different vegetation cover in the Jizerské hory Mts. region.
The development of Podzols is conditioned by many factors. One of them is vegetation cover. The aim of this study was to examine in detail special chemical properties, micromorphological features and water retention ability of Podzols under two different

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mixed dipterocarp lowland tropical rain forests on Oxisols and Ultisols and heath forests on Spodosols are considered distinct vegetation types in Borneo. Here we present the endmember hypothesis of ecosystem diversification, which describes a continuum of forest ...

Profile-differentiated soils of the Precarpathian region were formed due to the combined effect of such processes as podzolization, lessivage, gley-eluvium. For the diagnosis of these soils, researchers have used different diagnostic features.

Wildfire, salvage logging and warming: Their interactive effects on boreal conifer reforestation
This study demonstrates that artificial regeneration through planting can support forest recovery following wildfire, especially under high fire severity in sites where natural regeneration is poor. Salvage logging can enhance the growth of P. sylvestris seedlings and indirectly benefit P.

Abstract The characteristics used to distinguish between Mor and Moder differ among the various classifications of humus forms. Mor is often associated with ericaceous heathland that develops at high altitude or latitude, or in lowlands when soils are nutrient‐poor, sandy, and acidic.

Soil Microbial Populations Shift as Processes Protecting Organic Matter Change During Podzolization
In the upper part of the solum of mineral soils, soil organic and mineral constituents co-evolve through pedogenesis, that in turn impacts the transformation and stabilization of soil organic matter (SOM).

As temperate tree species require warmer temperatures than boreal species, some thermophilous species, such as white pine, increased in abundance at their northern edge during historically warmer periods. Our data reveal that not all temperate species behaved accordingly: maples were scarce during the warm mid‐Holocene, while their abundance increased ...

The theory of elementary soil-forming processes (ESP) proposed by Academician I.P. Gerasimov is discussed both in its initial version, and in its advanced perception in the beginning of XXI century. The progress and success of this theory is highlighted.

History does not unfold along a single trajectory, and yet the socioecological configuration of landscapes may narrow the directions history can take. This article develops a framework for assessing the directionality of history in a (pre)historic heath landscape in Denmark.

Podzolization as studied from terraces of various ages in two river valleys, Northern Finland.
The study was made in the Ivalojoki and Oulankajoki valleys, consisting of terraces of well sorted sandy material aged 9500â300 B.P. The vegetation is characterized by dry and moderately dry forest types with Scots pine ( L.) as the dominant tree ...
