Dead trees, particularly downed logs, play an important role in the dynamics of forest
ecosystem. Contribution of decaying wood to C and nutrient pools of forest soils depends on …

Pit and mound micro–relief (resultant microsites from trees uprooted by windthrow) could
have regimes of microclimate and soil features that differ from areas of undisturbed soil. In …

Microbial activity of top soils is directly linked with carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) turnover in
terrestrial ecosystems, and thus is an indicator to identify hot spot areas of C and N cycling in …

We propose that three primary causes of pedodiversity within old-growth northern hardwood
forests of Iran are (i) pit and mound topography from past tree fall events,(ii) current canopy …

Hyrcanian forests in northern Iran are one of the world's precious deciduous broadleaved
forest ecosystems but are subjected to increasing disturbances mostly of anthropogenic …

The effects of soil pedoturbation (ie, pit and mound microtopography, PM) on development
of herbaceous plant species and woody species regeneration were examined in a …

摘要为揭示倒木腐烂等级及其形成的微立地类型对土壤理化性质的影响, 分析了小兴安岭凉水
国家级自然保护区谷地云冷杉林由倒木形成的林隙内不同腐烂等级倒木形成的3 种微立地(丘顶 …

Wind erosion is a process of wind-forced movement of soil particles. This process has the
distinct phases of particle entrainment, transport and deposition. Because Iran locate in area …

植被恢复与重建是退化土地生态修复的重要途径, 植物与土壤环境的关系一直是热点科学问题,
但对高寒沙区尚缺乏系统性的研究. 为探明不同沙生植物对高寒沙地土壤的改良策略 …

To reveal the effects of decay level of fallen trees and their formed microsite types on soil
physicochemical properties, the differences in soil physicochemical properties (bulk density …
