Soils of the Green Alder communities Pulmonario-Alnetum viridis in the Eastern Carpathians (Bieszczady and Chornokhora Mts.)

Journal Title: Roczniki Bieszczadzkie - Year 2010, Vol 18, Issue 1

Abstract

Eutric Gleysols and some Mollic Gleysols provide environment for small patches of Pulmonario-Alnetum vegetation. #ese soils have slighty acidic or even neutral reaction (pH 5,0–6,0). Texture of such soils is loamy and the content of organic matter is 5,3–12,0% in humus horizon and it rapidly decreases down the soil pro!le. Primary minerals forming soil mass are quartz, plagioclases, feldspars and micas. Secondary clay minerals are represented by chlorite, illite, kaolinite, vermiculite and randomly interstrati!ed illite/smectite.
