The K contents of fine roots were the same in the two treatments (Table II). Results and Discussion To test what effects this specific proton input to the rhizosphere has on soil chem- istry, cation release from undisturbed soil From with sulfuric acid saplings treated samples was investigated (Kaupenjohann 30 peq more K had been leached than (B) and Hantschel, 1987) using sulfuric acid of from control trees sprayed with deionized pH’s corresponding to the average proton water (A).

K and Ca needle contents did not dif- cantly relates to Mg needle contents (Fig. fer between both treatments, however, Mg concentrations in needles of stressed trees decreased significantly by about 45 peq compared to trees sprayed with water (Table I). In the nutrient solution, we measured an increase of total acidity of about 60 peq per tree as a result of the acid treatment (Kaupenjohann et al., 1988). These findings confirm Ulrich’s hypothe- sis (Ulrich, 1983) that cation leaching from a tree’s canopy leads to an additional aci- dification of the rhizosphere resulting from enhanced cation uptake.

It is interesting to note that an increase Indeed, we measured a significant of the acid load of the same soil (Fig. 2) increase of fine root Mg in an old stand caused a higher release of both Mg and compared to a young stand at the same Ca into the soil solution (Kaupenjohann site (Table 111). The Ca content in living and Hantschel, 1987). From field studies, fine roots was, however, significantly lower we know that the proton input into old in old than in young spruce. The Ca/Al stands can exceed that of young ones by ratios of roots from old and young trees a factor of 2-3, because of the higher did not differ significantly (Schneider et canopy filtering capacity (Kaupenjohann, al., 1989). 1989). Actual Ca and Mg availability in old spruce stands, therefore, should increase We therefore think that proton release under the same soil conditions (Kaupenjo- from fine roots may restrict Ca uptake hann, 1989). more directly than does Al in the soil solu- !......a.:- :... t:........--..........1.._.._- ........J _I...J -1__1:...:_- --!..

The results describe causal rela- can a tionship between acid deposition, cation leaching, acidification of the tree’s rhizo- sphere, changes in soil chemistry and of damaged trees (B), however, were plant nutrition. In addition to the proton significantly lower (30%; Table IV) than in deposition, N inputs have to be taken into healthy trees (A), although soil Mg was account when investigating influences on even higher in the damaged stand (Table nutritional imbalances in forest ecosys- V). The amount of plant-available N in the soil was similar at both plots, which corre- tems. lates well with the N supply of the trees We therefore studied the effects of high (Fig. 3) (Kaupenjohann et al., 1989).
