The paper presents statistical, geostatistical and fractal analysis of variability of topsoil water pontent along a loess hillslope. Spatial dependence of topsoil water content was observed on studied sites. On a site with plants, the range of spatial dependence was smaller than on a site without plants. Fractal dimension showed that topsoil water on a site with plants was more randomized than on a site without, il.
