Anthropogenic impact on fluvisols in German floodplains. Ecological processes in soils and methods of investigation

摘要: Theregion of the Leipzig floodplain areas (Germany) is one most beautiful forests in Europe with partly degradated soils. The Weisse Elster and Pleisse rivers their catchments are examples very strong human impact on wetland ecosystems Germany. open cast lignite coal mining south as well chemical industries were source millions tons toxic organic inorganic contaminants which some have been accumulated floodplains floodplains. In recent years, international investigation ecological problems region has undertaken. This paper considers soil carried out at Geographical Department University. First all, questions related to matter flows (mobilization, complexing) nutrients harmful substances (e.g., heavy metals) will be discussed here.
