The Sudetes are remarkable for the variety and number of peat bogs which receive nutrients via precipitation from atmospheric deposition as the only source of minerals. As this type of peat bogs with a very low buffering capacity is affected in the S

For many terrestrial plants, nitrate is the most important form of available soil nitrogen for growth. However, many plant species, which grow on acidic, ammonium-dominated soils, exhibit a constantly low level of nitrate reductase activity (NRA). Li
