Is the effect of trees on soil properties mediated by soil fauna? A case study from post-mining sites
Original language description
The effects of tree species differing in foliage and litter chemistry on the chemical, micro-morphological, and biological properties of soil were studied on post-mining sites afforested with one of six tree species (spruce, pine, larch, oak, lime, and alder) and also on sites left to natural succession (dominated by willow). The sites were located on a large colliery spoil heap that had been produced by the mining of coal in alkaline tertiary clays near the city of Sokolov, Czech Republic. Because no topsoil had been applied to the sites, soil development resulted from in situ interactions among the deposited overburden (spoil), trees, and soil biota. Soil formation differed markedly among sites afforested with different tree species. On sites with trees producing litter with a low C/N ratio (the deciduous species), the organic Oe layer was narrow or absent and a thick organomineral A layer was evident. On sites with trees producing litter with a high C/N ratio (the evergreen species)
