Sobre els trets distintius dels sòls mediterranis

This article reviews the components of soil fertility and Mediterranean discuss their general characteristics, as well as the alleged oligotrophy often attributed to them. The types of these cycles and soil N and P have some common traits that are determined to be in a Mediterranean climate regime, though there are remarkable differences that relate mainly to the type of bedrock and explain differences often attributed to the five Mediterranean regions of soil. Organic matter and nitrogen cycle are particularly active in the Mediterranean soils, which are typically associated with high temperatures. Content Battery availability show a high variability caused by different substrate types and degree of lithological weathering. Fires always involve net losses of nutrients to the system and its recovery may require long periods of time. However, forthwith after the fire, there is usually a temporary increase of nutrients available that allows for efficient regeneration of vegetation for a short period of time. In fragile areas of the Mediterranean, often antròpicament previously modified, the fire can trigger a strong land degradation
