VLADEASA MASSIF
Although it seems a region
which is easy to analyze
from the point of view of the
landscape, the Vladeasa
Massif presents a relatively
complex and varied, due to
the geographical,
geomorphological,
hydrological and pedological
complexity which occurred
in time.
The Vladeasa Massive is
made up as a
geomorphological unit
which is very different from
the neighbouring large
morphological units

VLADEASA MASSIF
The magmatites (dacites, rhyolites
and granodiorites) from Vladeasa
Massif are fitted in the relief
through heavy, massive shapes
framed by deep valleys
the same reflex in relief have the
crystallofillian rocks, which,
through their structure, imposed the
presence of steep banks of cuesta
type and of structural surfaces (or
the so-called levelling surfaces)
Jurassic limestones from the
Rameti rift valley determined the
existence of an endocarstic relief
extremely important in the caves
from the basin of the Iada valley,
some of them being declared as
monuments of nature Romania

Hydrology and hydrogeology
the hydrographical basin of
Crisul Repede and, in a
reduced part, to the Somesul
Cald basin, situated at the
Southern limit of the territory
In the Crisul Repede basin
during 1955-2000 a lot of high
floods were registered, most
often 1-2 high floods per year,
having only one maximum
peak (monoundical high
floods) or with several peaks
(poliundical high floods).

BIODIVERSITY
From the point of view of the
phytogeographical region, the Vladeasa
Massif territory is classified in the
Central-European region, East-
Carpathian region, Apuseni Mountains
sub-province
The vegetation on altitude is represented
through the following units and
subunits:
1) the nemoral floor (of deciduous tree
forests) with the subfloor of common
oak forests, the subfloor of beech forests
and the subfloor of mixture forests
(beech with resinaceous);
2) the boreal floor (of common spruce
and other species of resinaceous)
3) the subalpine and alpine floors which
do not include species of trees but on an Romania
isolated basis Project COMMONS

OBJECTIVES
offering solutions regarding the
administration of natural resources
through the correlation of
environmental factors with the
biological and technological factors,
their improvement through the
working of soil represents a prioritz
in the conditions of practicing a long
lasting agriculture and of
reconstruction of the agro-sylvical
fund;
familiarization with the impact that
some improvement measures have
on: momentary humidity, water
reserve accumulated in the soil, soil
permeability for water, soil’s content
in chemical elements;
