Due to coal mining activities, heap substrates rich in clays with poor water permeability and lack of nutrients are relocated outside of mines representing hostile environment to the majority of vegetation. A material from the surface coal mines in Sokolov forming the Velká Podkrušnohorská Heap (VPS) form large locality showing characteristics of anthropogenically devasted landscape. The aim of the present study was to compare leaf structural and biochemical parameters with relation to a leaf reflectance of two pioneer tree species Salix caprea and Populus tremula with regard to leaf water regime and leaf adaptation to a water loss. From the methodological point of view, the study aimed on contribution to determine relation of selected leaf structural parameters to leaf reflectance what has not been intensively studied yet. The foliage of trees P. tremula and S. caprea grown on succession localities S2 a S3 for 30 years was used as a material for my study. The material was studied for its structure using the leaf cross sections nd abaxial epidermal strips (thickness of the leaf tissue layers and of a leaf, stomatal size density and area). Other studied parameters were contents of photosynthetic pigments, specific leaf area (SLA), water potential and leaf reflectance in regions of photosyntetically...
