The paper presents the example of numerical modelling of groundwater flow during dewatering of the TURÓW lignite open pit mine. The basis of numerical solution was the problem of groundwater flow described by Richard’s equation, using 3-D finite elements method. The main purpose of the modelling carried out, taking into consideration this model, was the prediction of water logging of the waste soil bank and its surroundings. Modelling test results of the groundwater flow will be applied for extension of dewatering system and the design of monitoring system of potential threat of the waste soil bank stability, constructed in the close vicinity of lignite mine.
It is not clear to what extent trees growing on anthropogenic sites change their growth and biomass allocation to different organs. We assessed the aboveground biomass in a chronosequence of six Scots pine monocultures (between 6 and 20 years old) to examine how precisely the site-specific or control allometric equations may reflect the value of biomass accumulation and allocation in stands growing in harsh site conditions on the overlayer spoil heap made as a result of opencast brown coal mining. The site is characterized by poor edaphic and water conditions and nutrient deficiency. The control equations were developed from Scots pine stands growing on post-agricultural lands in the close vicinity of the spoil heap. We found that equation type significantly influenced results of predicted biomass accumulation for all biomass components studied (although results were only marginally significant for total aboveground biomass, P=0.08). Total aboveground biomass in younger stands (6–9 years old) estimated using site-specific equations was >40% higher and for older stands (17–20 years old) from 7 to 27% lower than estimated using equations developed for the control sites. Our study revealed that under harsh environmental conditions in spoil heaps, biomass of young Scots pine stands significantly differ from values calculated based on control equations developed for more fertile soils with better water conditions in the same region. The control biomass equations may not be suitable to estimate biomass accumulation in stands growing on infertile habitats with poor water conditions, if the control equations are developed for nearby stands but growing under better site conditions.
The morphology of fine roots ( 2 mm diameter) as well as fine and coarse root biomass was investigated in a chronosequence consisting of 6-, 9-, 11-, 15-, 17- and 20-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) stands growing on a reclaimed lignite mine spoil heap. Core method of destructive root sampling was used to establish whether root morphology and biomass varied with stand age in the upper 20 cm of soil. Fine root biomass ranged from 0.78 to 3.11 Mg ha-1, coarse root biomass ranged from 0.82 to 2.74 Mg ha-1, whereas root necromass ranged from 1.03 Mg ha-1 to 2.87 Mg ha-1 in the chronosequence studied. Fine root diameter as well as length, projected area, and surface area expressed per unit area increased significantly with stand age. Moreover, our study revealed that when stand age increases, specific fine root biomass increases, whereas specific root length and area decreases. The results support our hypothesis that stand age has an effect on standing fine root biomass and morphology.
