The results characterize the situation of the south-Moravian floodplain forest in the period of fading uncontrolled floods before the extensive technical measures successively changed the moisture regime by eliminating inundation and lowering the level of underground water. This publication is unique in Czechoslovakia as it records the ecological situation in the floodplain forest prior to the major and irreversible changes. The study also documents the exceptional role played by the Central-European floodplain forest in maintaining the gene pool and structure of the one thousand or so species in flora and fauna of an agricultural region.
1. Natural conditions of floodplain forests. 2. Basic environmental factors. 3. Primary Production. 4. Some physiological processes in the ecosystem of a floodplain forest. 5. Secondary Production. 6. Decomposition. 7. Cycling of mineral nutrients. Plates. Index.
