2019, Forest Ecology and ManagementCitation Excerpt :At low altitudes, they occur mixed with hornbeam (Carpinus betulus L.) (Marvie Mohadjer, 2007). Previous studies showed that different forest properties such as land forms [i.e. catena (Fazlolahi Mohammadi et al., 2016; Fazlolahi Mohammadi et al., 2017), pit-mound micro topography (Kooch et al., 2014a, b; Kooch et al., 2015), gilgai (Kooch and Bayranvand, 2018)], tree species (Kooch and Bayranvand, 2017; Kooch et al., 2017a, b; Bayranvand et al., 2017; Bayranvand et al, 2018), deadwoods (Moghimian et al., 2017) and canopy gaps (Kooch et al., 2015) can be effective factors on soil properties in old-growth Hyrcanian beech forests, northern Iran (see Fig. 1). Despite the importance of Hyrcanian forests for the Caspian region a comprehensive study that assessed how site-specific properties such as catena landform, pit-mound micro topography, gilgai position, single-trees, deadwoods and canopy gaps determine soil microbial activities and thus define hotspot areas that of the C and N cycles has not been conducted yet.
Microtopography and ecology of pit-mound structures in second-growth versus old-growth forests
2017, Forest Ecology and ManagementCitation Excerpt :In temperate forests, visible pit and mound topography may affect 15–50% of the forest floor (Stephens, 1956; Lyford and MacLean, 1966; Sobhani et al., 2014). The forest process of uprooting and erosion mixes the soil and initiates new episodes of soil formation (Veneman et al., 1984; Lenart et al., 2010), alters ecosystem processes such as soil respiration (Miliken & Bowden, 1996; Kooch et al., 2015), and diversifies microhabitats for tree regeneration and ground-layer plants (Lyford and MacLean, 1966; Carlton and Bazzaz, 1998b; von Oheimb et al., 2007) as well as many other organisms. Tree diameter is a strong predictor of pit-mound size (Sobhani et al., 2014) so as tree size increases through forest development, pit-mound size and longevity should correspondingly increase, analogous to the relationship between forest development stage, tree size, and canopy gap size (cf. Dahir and Lorimer, 1996).
Soil fauna responses to natural disturbances, invasive species, and global climate change: Current state of the science and a call to action
2017, Soil Biology and BiochemistryCitation Excerpt :In addition to large-scale canopy openings from hurricanes, soil pits and mounds from windthrown trees are another consequence of wind disturbance that can have profound impacts on soil biota. In beech forests of northern Iran, endogeic and anecic earthworms, in particular, were rarely found in soil mounds, but were common in soil pits (Kooch et al., 2014, 2015). This contrasts with work in beech and poplar forests in Belgium, where windthrow pits had very low earthworm abundance (Nachtergale et al., 2002).
Pit-mound microrelief in forest soils: Review of implications for water retention and hydrologic modelling
2017, Forest Ecology and ManagementCitation Excerpt :Kooch et al. (2014) found significantly higher earthworm abundances in treethrow pits, when compared to both mounds and undisturbed microsites. Although some studies (e.g., Nachtergale et al., 2002) report negative correlations between tree uprooting and earthworm biomass, this relationship may have resulted because earthworms are more abundant in older pits (Kooch et al., 2015). Also, in forest soils, the burrowing activity of earthworms provides a strong positive feedback on soil porosity and infiltration rates (Schütz et al., 2008).
