Microbial structure and activity studies in the post-mining heap’s novel ecosystems in Czech-Polish border the methodical challenge

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The project focuses on analyzing the activity and structure of microbial communities in post-mining coal mine heaps located along the Czech-Polish border to identify key factors essential for ecosystem restoration. The research encompasses the characterization of the physiochemical properties of heap soil substratum and a detailed assessment of microbial community biomass, structure, and activity. Previous studies reveal significant disparities between microbial communities in post-mining coal mine heaps and those in natural ecosystems, with the former exhibiting reduced microbial biomass and diversity. These variations are attributed to the challenging environmental conditions of post-mining sites, including elevated soil pH, limited nutrient availability, and localized high salinity, which collectively hinder microbial proliferation. Additionally, nutrient deficiencies in post-mining soils adversely affect plant growth, complicating the establishment of a stable vegetation cover critical for ecosystem recovery. This research aims to deepen our understanding of the intricate relationships between plants and microbes in both natural and disturbed ecosystems. By elucidating these interactions, the findings can provide valuable insights into restoring ecological balance and functionality in degraded lands. Ultimately, the study has the potential to inform sustainable land management practices, enhance ecosystem functions, and contribute to biodiversity conservation in post-mining landscapes.
