Disturbances play an essential role in the shaping of temporal and spatial heterogeneity in natural community structures. The aim of this study was to provide an assessment of the deadwood influence on the chemical and biochemical properties of soils in a landslide area. The samples used to determine soil properties were collected from the entire landslide area, with locations distributed on a regular grid (50 × 50 m). The soil samples were collected from directly under the logs, and background soil samples were taken 1 m from the deadwood logs. The effect of the deadwood decomposition process was visible in the total organic carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) content and microbial activity of the soil. An increase in the enzyme activity and microbial biomass of the soil from directly beneath the deadwood was noted. In this study, it was found that a greater stock of deadwood was present in the accumulation zone, which resulted in a stronger effect of the released components on the soil cover. In order to restore landslide soils, microbial activity can be effectively stimulated by leaving deadwood on the landslide surface.
