Abstract

Expeditionary studies of the functioning of landscapes of mid-mountain monsoon (including fog) forests have been being conducted within the landscape and ecological station in the territory of the Bidoup-Nui Ba National Park and the adjacent Hon Giao since 2018 and are currently underway. One of the research objectives is to clarify the biogeochemical migrations of the material composition of soils in the “leaf debris–soil” system. We have consistently studied natural objects for their material composition as well as the intensity and rate of involvement of chemical elements in physicochemical migration processes in the “leaf debris–soil” system. Our findings indicate an active influx of a select group of examined elements (Se, Pd, Ag, Cd, Sn, Bi), particularly Bi, Pd, Se, and Cd, through the leaf debris and the detachment of aboveground plant organs, warranting their integration into organogenic soil horizons. Subsequently, lateral migration (Pd, Cd, Se) ensues. Slope processes within subordinate landscape facets, in addition to soil moisture and aeration processes, contribute to the subsequent redistribution of elemental volumes introduced into organogenic soil horizons.
