Soil moisture and temperature in the forest and agricultural landscape at the Amálie location – selected results from early-stage monitoring

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Soil is a key water reservoir, which is now strongly affected by climate change and human activities. Overheating of the landscape occurs more frequently. The aim of this contribution is to present selected results from unique soil moisture and temperature monitoring situated in drought-prone area of Central Bohemia, where the Amálie Smart Landscape project of the Czech University of Life Sciences is being realized (CVPK CZU, 2018). Soil moisture is here actually measured by almost 300 TMS TOMST microclimatic stations in different spatial scales and depths. Monitoring networks were established in the realized measures, namely in silvoarable agroforestry and regulated drainage systems in the agricultural part, and under different tree species in the forested part. Moreover, soil moisture is also measured along five transects passing through the entire Amálie area with the purpose of comparing agricultural and forest landscapes and local microclimate. Early-stage data from the agroforestry system show the ability of the forested part to prevent landscape overheating. Tree alleys also exhibited more intensive soil moisture depletion and more effective recharge mechanisms than arable land. In regulated drainage, we observed an increase in soil moisture in the locations with low slopes and in the deeper soil layers in comparison with unregulated control. For the forested part of Amálie, results of different tree species monitoring show that during early spring, the soil under evergreen spruce is drier than for larch or beech; mechanisms are partly described by Kuželková et al. (2024). A comparison of agricultural and forest landscapes shows the ability of the forest to mitigate soil and surface temperature extremes during hot periods. Overall, the monitoring provides valuable data about the concrete effects of realized measures and helps to clarify the role of the forest. The presented findings can help with effective adaptation to climate change and the related occurrence of hydroclimatic extremes.
