Mountain recreation impact on changes in soil penetration resistance of spruce forests by Y. Ivanenko, G. Lobchenko, V. Yukhnovskyi

“…The research aims to determine the impact of recreation as an external mechanical impact on soil compaction by determining the soil penetration resistance under the canopy of predominant spruce stands. For this purpose, soil penetration resistance was measured with a penetrometer along two hiking trails within the root layer of the soil at four measuring sites at different distances from the hiking trail. …”
