Abstract

The aim of our research was to present the properties of alluvial soils from mountain forest areas. Additionally, the paper presents the vegetation accompanying the studied soils. The detailed characteristics will include the stand and the undergrowth. 10 study plots representing mountain areas were included in the study. Study plots were located in the mountains in the Bielsko, Ustro ń , Szklarska Por ę ba, W ę gierska Górka forest districts as well as the Bieszczadzki, Babiogórski and Tatrza ń ski National Parks. At each sample plot a detailed description of soil pro ﬁ le has been carried out, samples were collected from each genetic horizon in order to perform the basic determinations of the soil properties. On each research plot, a phytosociological relevé using the Braun-Blanquet method and a taxonomic description of the tree stand were performed. The diagnosis of forest site type was determined according to forest management principles and the Trophic Soil Index was calculated. The properties of mountain alluvial soils are related to the properties of the rock complexes within which alluvial terraces are formed. Mountain alluvial soils belong to various groups (Fluvisols, Leptosols, Cambisols, Phaeozems), which depend on the valley location and anthropogenic factors. River regulation and the disappearance of ﬂ oods result in the formation of soils with a cambic horizon and acidi ﬁ cation of the surface horizons devoid of the in ﬂ uence of water. Two main plant communities are associated with mountain alluvial soils: Alnetum incanae and Carici remotae-Fraxinetum . Ecosystems related to mountain alluvial soils are very valuable due to their high biodiversity and ful ﬁ lling various ecosystem functions.

在山区的冲积土壤上形成了森林生境

我们研究的目的是介绍山地林区冲积土的性质。此外，本文还介绍了所研究土壤的植被。详细的特征将包括林分和灌木。研究包括10个具有代表性的山区研究样地。研究地点位于别尔斯科、乌斯特罗、什克拉斯卡·波尔兹巴、W·吉尔斯卡Górka林区的山区以及别什恰扎兹基、Babiogórski和塔特尔扎斯基国家公园。在每个样地都进行了土壤剖面的详细描述，从每个遗传层收集了样品，以便进行土壤性质的基本测定。在每个研究样地，采用布朗-布兰凯方法进行植物社会学分析，并对林分进行分类描述。根据森林经营原则进行立地类型诊断，并计算土壤营养指数。山地冲积土的性质与形成冲积阶地的岩石复合体的性质有关。山地冲积土根据河谷位置和人为因素的不同可分为不同的类群(流壤、薄壤、cambisol、Phaeozems)。河流的调节和洪水的消失导致形成了具有形成层的土壤和缺乏水影响的地表酸化层。两种主要的植物群落与山地冲积土壤有关:白花苜蓿(Alnetum inccanae)和加勒比植物(Carici remote - fraxinetum)。山地冲积土生态系统具有丰富的生物多样性和丰富的生态系统功能，具有重要的研究价值。
