“…This silica increase can be attributed to the water runoff coming into the stream because of the road construction, which allows the rapid erosion of forest-acidified and impoverished soils resulting from the intensive cropping of Pinus radiata on the mountain slopes nearby (ITURRONDOBEITIA and SALOÑA, 1991). Similar acidification processes are well-known world-wide (DAMBRINE et al, 1998 ;NOBLE et al, 1999 ;LILIENFEIN et al, 2000).…”

“…The acidity found in forest wells is usually associated with carbonic acid dissolution, rock weathering and litter decomposition over the forest floor, which yields organic acids. [25][26][27] In fact, Williams et al and Chaves et al studying intact forests in Central Amazonas and Rondônia, respectively, found more acidic pH values (4.7 and 5.2) than those observed in the Urupá basin. 15,16 In addition to the above mentioned factors influencing acidity in groundwater, in rural and urban areas, domestic and industrial sewage disposal and soil alteration through corrective products and fertilizers can also influence pH.…”

“…hondurensis em relação à mata nativa. Em Latossolo argiloso da região de Uberlândia, MG, verificou-se que o cultivo de Pinus caribaea, embora não tenha alterado o pH do solo, reduziu de 0,2 a 0,6 unidade o pH da solução extraída das amostras de terra da camada de 0,15 a 1,2 m, em comparação com a vegetação de Cerrado (LILIENFEIN et al, 2000). A acidificação do solo em áreas florestais pode ser relacionada com a lixiviação de bases ou pela absorção desses elementos pelas árvores, o que seria mais evidente em solos intemperizados, pobres em nutrientes e com baixo tamponamento.…”
