The effect of some soil properties on vitality of the silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) the European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.),and the Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in the Swietokrzyski NationalPark

摘要

In the Swietokrzyski National Park the kind of a parent rock had a significant effect on vitality of the silver fir and the European beech, while the granulometric composition, type and subytpe of soils significantly affected vitality of the silver fir. Soils developed from colian formations were least favourable for the silver fir and the European beech. Fir trees of the worst vitality grew on typical lessives soils and soils with granulometric composition of silt loam, as well as very fine sand and silt loam over a stony, loamy formation. Soil properties investigated had no significant effect on vitality of the Scots pine.
