The effect of management practice of montane meadows in the Bohemian Forest on selected soil biological and chemical properties.

Original language description

Selected properties of soil microbial community and some soil chemical characteristics were studied in relation to the management of montane grassland in the Bohemian Forest. The grassland had been regularly mown until 1997 when the field experiment wasestablished. Three experimental treatments were investigated: mowing, mulching and abandonment. For the purpose of this study, the soils were sampled in 1999 and 2000. It was found that both mulching and abandonment led to decrease in both soil microbialbiomass and overall microbial activity expressed as dehydrogenase activity, as compared to the control mown plot. In contrary, there was no clear effect of management practice on basal soil respiration and denitrifying enzyme activity. Study on soil nitrogen availability showed rather distinct pattern of ammonium and nitrate nitrogen content in the soils, as well as major differences in accumulation of the both nitrogen forms in soil profiles of the three variants.
