Influence of a fertilizer stockpile on soil and water properties in a protected area – a case study from Tarnawa Wyżna in the Bieszczady National Park
Journal Title: Roczniki Bieszczadzkie - Year 2013, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
After the displacement of population at the end of 1940s, soils of the upper San valley were subject to natural plant succession. In 1980s a large remediation programme was carried out in the studied area – the study was aimed to investigate the impact of one of the many abandoned fertilizer stockpiles. The research has shown only a relatively small and spatially limited influence of the stockpile on soil properties expressed mainly in pH changes and an increase in soil compactness. The obtained results indicate that soil, owing to its filtering role, prevents the spreading of calcium and phosphorus compounds, potentially able to eutrophicate the environment
