The phrase "acidic forest" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing ecosystems, soil chemistry, or environmental science where the acidity of the forest's soil or water is relevant.
Example: "The acidic forest, rich in moss and ferns, thrived in the damp, shaded conditions of the valley."
Alternatives: "sour woodland" or "tart forest".
The fungal C to bacterial C ratio increased with increasing acidity from 0.9 in the saline arable soils to 4.5 in the strongly acidic forest soils.
Nitrite incorporation into DON was also important for soil N retention in the subtropical strongly acidic forest soils (pH 4.7), however, in the temperate acidic forest soils, 15N was not detected in the DON pool.
The NO2− turnover was most likely the key driving force for N transformations in the acidic forest soils.
Oxidation of soil organic N was the dominant NO2− production pathway in the acidic forest soils, which was negatively related to soil pH (p < 0.01).
A series of 15N tracing studies were performed, where 15N was added as NH4+, NO3−, or NO2− to temperate and subtropical forest soils, and NO2− transformations were investigated in these acidic forest soils.
The primary objectives of this study were to clarify the production and consumption pathways of NO2− in the acidic forest soils and compare the NO2− dynamics between temperate and subtropical forest soils.
The northern tip of Hokkaido is classed as a subzone of the podzolic soils; the remainder of the island is included in the subzone of the acidic brown forest soils.
Tick absence was associated with grasslands, conifer forests, wet to wet/mesic forests, acidic soils of low fertility and a clay soil texture, and Precambrian bedrock.
There was a negative association with grasslands and conifer forests, wet and wet/mesic forests, acidic soils such as spodosols, clay soil texture, and Precambrian bedrock.
For the addition of Ag to the acidic (pH 4.5) forest soil, the four curves were nearly superimposed, suggesting that most of the nAg was dissolved and non-complexed.
The most similar compounds, which are quite different from sceliphrolactam, are salinilactam from the marine actinomycete Salinispora tropica [41] and macromonosporin A from the acidic peat swamp forest Actinobacterium Micromonospora sp. [42].
