Soil carbon dioxide concentration and efflux changes in ruts after heavy machine passes

Original language description

Heavy loaded forwarders and similar forest machinery moving along the same rut gradually push back soil at the rut edges, while soil is compressed and its porosity decreases at the rut centre. Rut surface shows markedly higher deterioration of soil gasses efflux in compare with undisturbed area. It was founded by continual measurement with Vaisala device with infra-red probes, that the soil CO2 concentration in rut was 12 times higher than in undisturbed soil (4,2 % versus 0,5 %). The CO2 efflux from ruts surface was 50 % lower compared to undisturbed area (0,15 % versus 0,35 %). Poorer CO2 efflux in soil caused by machine pass can negatively influenced tree root systems and it is possible that it is one measurable indicator of machine pass negative influence on forest environment.
