Abstract
The study aims to contribute to knowledge of hydrodynamic processes in a soil profile of mountain-humic podzol under small-pole spruce stand. Method is based on investigation of hydrological balance of 60cm topsoil. Totally 144 tensiometers placed in different depths (15, 30, 45 and 60 cm) were used to measure suction pressure within square plot of 1 are area. Behaviour of gravitation water in macropores (hydraulic head of groundwater table) was investigated using a piezometer pipe put into a drill well. Thorough hydropedological investigation was conducted to obtain parameters needed for hydrological balance calculation. The study quantifies regime of hydrodynamic processes in the mountain podzol during growing period 2007 and reveals a dominant influence of rainfall on water flow in an aerated zone of the soil.
