description | Landscape retention influences the water balance of a catchment and the course of flooding events. The degree of retention capabilities of forest soils are much less known than the retention of land used for agriculture. Soil retention capacity influences the formation of a given forest habitat type, floristic species composition, as well as the type and quality of the stand of trees. The analysis was carried out for a regression model dedicated to selected forest soils within the area of Poland, as well as van Genuchten’s and Wösten’s, and Varallyay’s and Mironienko’s models. In order to assess the fit of the models, an independent series of forest soils were used. The models prepared for soils used for agricultural purposes do not result in statistically acceptable fit when it comes to the analyzed forest soils. The analysis of measured and calculated values of total available water indicate good fit of the regression model developed for the analyzed group of podzolic and brown forest soils. |
