5 Abstrakt Soil organic matter is the largest reservoir of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems, and its functionally important component is dissolved organic matter. Its composition and changes in this composition during the vegetation season affect the vegetation, the activity of the organisms in the soil and the formation of soil organic matter. Local bio-hotspots such as anthills create spatial heterogeneity of the soil solution composition. In my work I analyzed cold water (CWE) and hot water (HWE) soil extracts, which I took in different distances from the anthill, in three soil horizons (O, A, B) three times during one vegetation season. I measured contents of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), C: N ratio and the parameter SUVA254 and SUVA280. The labile C and N content varied with the distance from the anthill. The C and N content with the distance from the anthill at O horizon increases, decreases in A and B. C: N ratio was the highest in the A horizon, but during the season the differences were not so significant. The smallest content of C and N was in April, the highest in July. The SUVA parameter in O and B decreases with distance from anthill, in A on the other hand it has risen. Ants have an effect not only on the quantity but also on the quality of the DOM, at the same time creating heterogeneity of DOM...
