Abstract :
Six Norway spruce stands (Picea abies L.) in southern Sweden and six in the northeastern Czech Republic, 12 stands in total, were selected for short-term investigations during the summer and autumn of 1991. In each of the plots, an assessment of foliar damage and dendrometric measurement of the trees was made. Soil and leaf samples were collected and analyzed for their chemical composition. After statistical evaluation of the most important correlations, it was concluded that the main cause of tree damage in both countries was through the acidification of the soils. In both countries, but especially in the Czech Republic, heavy metal accumulation in the humus layer was observed. The main results of the study were the discovery of the similarity of damage processes in the two countries, despite the differences in their geographic location and ambient air pollution levels
