Properties of Fuvisol and Humofluvisol in Defended Part of Alluvial Zone In Middle Danube

Background and purpose: In paper analyzed the characteristics of the soil in the defend part of the alluvial plains in the Middle Danube region. Material and methods: The research was carried out in the protected part of the river Danube riparian zone. Particle size composition, density and specific gravity, as well as chemical properties were determined by standard laboratory methods. Results and Conclusion: At the investigated sites determinated two types of soil (humofluvisol and fluvisol). Within fluvisol were separated in two forms, namely: sandy and loamy. Content analysis and distribution of silt + clay fraction, and analysis of the timing and content of humus in the depth profile is determined by the closeness in the genesis of humofluvisol and loamy form of fluvisol. Application of multivariate analysis defined two categories of soil of ecological production
