Soil-forming effect of Douglas fir at lower altitudes ? a case study
Original language description
Forest ecosystem and in particular forest soils biodiversity and stability could be jeopardised by impropriate tree species composition. Douglas-fir is a species which has high potential in Europe both in economic and biodiversity aspects of forest management. More detailed analysis of the Douglas-fir effects on the humus forms and forest soil under different conditions is needed to evaluate future use of this species in central European forests. The study plots cover acid sites with natural hardwood, spruce monoculture and Douglas-fir stands. The soil analysis proved favourable effects of this species on the soil chemistry, organic matter as well as nutrient dynamics. When compare with domestic coniferous species, Douglas-fir proved to have lower acidifying effects on upper soil layers and contributes to better humus forms, recycling nutrients more effectively and producing litter which could be easily decomposed.
