Abstract
The effect of stump harvesting on annual NNM as well as on N leaching was soil specific and highly variable. Stump harvesting affected also the proportion of the nitrification and ammonification processes in total NNM. Considering the first short-term results obtained from different site types, we can conclude that harvesting of spruce stumps does not induce serious environmental hazards in relation of N cycling.
