This paper reports on magnetic and magnetomineralogical studies of forest soils from Krkonoše (Giant Mountains) National Park in the Czech Republic. Low-field magnetic susceptibility was measured in 32 soil profiles using a field probe. Thermomagnetic analysis, acquisition of remanent magnetization, alternating-field demagnetization of saturation remanence and frequency-dependent magnetic susceptibility were measured in laboratory samples from individual soil horizons as well as on their magnetic extracts. X-ray diffraction and SEM were used to identify ferrimagnetic fractions. The uppermost layer, which is dominated by magnetically soft magnetite of presumably anthropogenic origin, can be reliably identified in soil profiles over the whole region of concern. Subsoil horizons are characterised by significantly different magnetic properties.
