Gezeigt wurde, dass sich in der Bergbaufolgelandschaft auf dem sandigen anthropogen geschütteten Substrat andere Krustenarten auf der Substratoberfläche ansiedeln als auf der Substratoberfläche von Flugsandgebieten und Dünen. Der Effekt der Benetzungshemmung ist bei den Krustenarten der rekultivierten Bergbauflächen stärker ausgeprägt als bei den natürlichen Flugsandgebieten und Dünen, wo die Benetzungshemmung im Krustentstadium mit Einfluss von Moosen wieder zurückgeht. Gerade Flechten haben in Bergbaufolgelandschaften negativen Einfluss auf die Infiltration von Niederschlag. Auch die Bindungskräfte zwischen den Partikeln spielen bei der Betrachtung des Einflusses der Benetzungshemmung / Hydrophobizität eine Rolle, denn es zeigt sich bei Betrachtung der Korngrößenverteilung, dass das Substrat in den Rekultivierungsgebieten der Bergbaufolgelandschaft unsortiert ist und hohe Anteile an Feinmaterial (Schluff und Ton) aufweisen kann. Auf den Flugsandgebieten findet eine natürliche Sortierung der Partikel durch Wind und Wasser statt, wobei das Substrat meist locker lagernd vorkommt und lediglich im Lee von höheren Pflanzen zur Ruhe kommen kann. Dort übernehmen dann biologische Bodenkrusten und andere Mikroorganismen die Bindung und Festigung der Partikel z. B. durch extrazelluläre polymere Substanzen. Es wurde deutlich, dass die Akkumulation organischer Substanz bei Bewuchs mit Laubgehölzen in größerem Maße stattfindet als bei Bewuchs mit Nadelgehölzen. Jedoch weisen die Chlorophyll a-Gehalte auf mehr Biomasse durch biologische Bodenkrusten bei den Nadelgehölzen hin. Insgesamt ist festzuhalten, dass jeder untersuchte Standort separat für sich betrachtet werden muss und nicht von einer Chronosequenz im Sinne einer eindeutig zeitlichen Abfolge bei Betrachtung der Alter der Standorte ausgegangen werden kann. Lediglich die Standorte in der Bergbaufolgelandschaftfür sich sowie die Standorte in den relativ natürlich entwickelten Flugsand- und Dünengebieten können gemeinsam betrachtet werden. Wie gezeigt wurde, beeinflussen biologische Bodenkrusten gerade schon in der Initialphase der Bodenbildung den Wasserhaushalt durch Porenverschluss, durch hydrophob wirkende Exsudate, aber auch durch Rhizoide der Moose, insbesondere im brandenburgischen Übergangsklima vom maritimen zum kontinentalen Klima. Durch die Regulierung des Wasserhaushalts des Bodens durch die biologischen Bodenkrusten wird die Bodenentwicklung in bestimmte Richtungen gelenkt. Hierfür sind allerdings Langzeitbeobachtungen und eine möglichst gewissenhafte Auswahl an Chronosequenzen notwendig.

One possible source of renewable energy in parts of Europe is the use of crop for bioenergy production. Currently, maize dominates the biogas production. For a diversified production of substrates alternative crops needs to be evaluated for their sustainable utilization and ecological integration into agro-systems. The new bioenergy plants IGNISCUM Candy and IGNISCUM Basic are cultivars of the Sakhalin Knotweed (Fallopia sachalinensis, Fam. Polygonaceae), which are characterized by a high annual biomass production. Information on the crop production of this species is rare. Hence, understanding plant response to the combinations of water and nutrients availability is crucial for the development of sustainable plant production. In greenhouse experiments we investigate the interrelations between nutrient supply, biomass production, and plant ecophysiology. For the determination of yield-transpiration relations at whole plant level we used a wick lysimeter system, which allows us to study plant growth under controlled water regimes and to calculate the plant transpiration. The irrigation is supplied by an automatic drip irrigation system and computer-controlled in relation to the volumetric soil water content. Four different water treatments associated to the SWC range from well-watered to drought stressed plants. The influence of plant sizes on plant water use was investigated under different nitrogen supply. The fertilizer applied is calcium ammonium nitrate (N) and the rates for the four treatments are 0, 50, 100, 150 kg N/ha at the beginning of the growing season. Plant transpiration is calculated on the basis of water input, storage and drainage in weekly intervals. The cumulative transpiration of the plants during the growing season is between 49 L (drought stressed) and 141 L (well-watered) per plant, respectively. We calculated a transpiration coefficient of 525 Liters per kg dry biomass.

It is the same and integratively traces pattern formation during succession T2 - GfÖ 43rd Annual Meeting, Building bridges in ecology, linking systems, scales and disciplines, September 9 to 13, 2013, Potsdam, Germany N2 - It is widely acknowledged that increasing complexity is a key attribute of ecosystem genesis. This is particularly true for primary succession on homogeneous substrates. However, a mechanistic understanding of spatial colonisation and pattern formation during primary succession has not been achieved yet. Thus, we studied this topic for 7 years within an experimental catchment (6 ha) established in the post-mining landscape of eastern Germany. Equidistant permanent plots (120 plots à 25m²) allowed for autocorrelation analyses, and thus tracing the spatial development of species cover performance. For each species tested, the “cover balance” first increased due to colonization, while decreasing in the course of succession. Drawing a benefit from these temporal trends, we suggested cover balance levels revealed by autocorrelation analyses to best indicate well-defined phases in primary succession at spatial entities. Hence, with the help of this spatial approach, terrestrial succession can be understood now much better at the most general level of the hierarchy provided by Pickett et al. (1987). In accordance with these authors, at subordinated levels of the causal hierarchy differential species performance might get collectively explained by contributing processes or conditions, such as ecophysiological traits, life history strategies, competition and allelopathy of the occurring plant species. Further research is needed to understand their relative contributions to the pattern formation.

We determined the concentration, chemical composition, radiocarbon age, and bioavailability of DOC along the hydrological flow path from soil solution to a downstream pond in a recently constructed catchment (Chicken Creek Catchment, Germany). Soil solution, upwelling ground water, subsurface water in an alluvial fan, and pond water all had high DOC concentrations (averaged 6.0 – 11.6 mg DOC L‐1), despite small carbon stocks in either vegetation or soil of the catchment. The mean 14C age of DOC in upwelling ground water was 2600 to 2800 years. Solid-state CPMAS 13C NMR revealed a higher proportion of aromatic compounds (32%) and a lower proportion of carbohydrates (33%) in upwelling ground water compared to pond water (18% and 45%, respectively). 14C age and 13C NMR spectra suggest that DOC was partly mobilized from charred organic matter inherent in the Quaternary substrate. In a 70-days incubation experiment, 20% of the total DOC was found to be bioavailable, irrespective of the water type. Origin of the microbial communities within the catchment (enriched from soil, stream sediment or pond water) had only marginal effects on overall DOC utilization. Overall, our data suggest that both recent and old DOC support microbial activity during early ecosystem succession, although a large fraction of the DOC is recalcitrant and eventually exported from the catchment once it has been mobilized.

Its original range is a climatic region classified as humid to sub-humid, with a mean annual precipitation of 1020 to 1830 mm. However, it grows under a wide range of edaphic and climatic conditions and the species has proven to be relatively drought tolerant. In central Europe, with a continental climate, the species has been successfully cropped for biomass production also on marginal land, even in post-­‐mining areas characterized by water limitation and harsh edaphic conditions. Due its drought tolerance, fast resprouting rate and its ability to live in symbiosis with Rhizobia and thus fix atmospheric nitrogen, black locust could become a key species for short-­‐rotation plantation on marginal land. Several studies have been already carried out to quantify the black locust above ground production and its water use efficiency. However, the relation between the black locust biomass allocation, root system development and plant water use has still to be examined. In our study we evaluated the drought stress effect on black locust below ground biomass production, root distribution, and the root and rhizobial association. Different irrigation regimes were chosen to test the plant’s performance in a lysimeter experiment, under semi-­‐controlled environmental conditions, for the duration of two vegetation periods. From the results obtained we determined the root biomass allocation under different irrigation regimes and identified the close relation between the soil water condition and the rhizobial association.
