Abstract Biologically stabilized landfill leachate usually requires further removal of organic substances and ammoniacal-N before final discharge. Chemical oxidation may be a convenient method for removal of organics but does not appear efficient in ammoniacal-N removal. Under the best operational conditions lab-scale application of electrochemical oxidation to treatment of leachate with low BOD/COD ratios and high ammoniacal-N content resulted in 75% COD removal and 100% ammoniacal-N oxidation. Ammoniacal-N oxidation appears to follow chemical oxidation by chlorine and chlorites formed by electrochemical conversion of chlorides in the leachate (1600 mg/l). Further developments on pilot plant are on progress. Key words: forest floor, surface soil, organic matter, nutrients accumulation, marquis ecosystem 1. INTRODUCTION Biological stabilization in landfill leachate may be a result of application of pre-treatment strategies, of degradation processes within the landfill and their eventual enhancement or of biological treatment of the leachate. Whatever the case the resulting leachate may still contain high COD values (generally higher than 1000 mg/l), low BOD/COD ratio and significant concentrations of ammoniacal-N and halogenated compounds. 2. FUNDAMENTALS OF CHEMICAL OXIDATION 2.1 Organics and other compounds in biodegraded leachate The organic content of MSW landfill leachate may vary extensively according to different influencing parameters and can be roughly classified into three main groups (Christensen, 1982; cit. in Kylefors, 1997 ) :
Body text: The body text begins after a blank line from the key words. Do not indent paragraphs. Blank lines should be left only if necessary. Headings in the text are written with Bold capital letters after a blank line, aligned left. They are numbered using Arabic numerals. Subheadings have an initial capital letter and the following small letters in Italics. They use multi-level numbering with Arabic numerals, such as 1.1; 1.1.1; 1.1.2; 1.2; 1.3 etc.

2. MATERIAL AND METHODS 2.1. Plant material Aerial parts of Satureja hortensis L., Thymus vulgaris L., Salvia officinalis L. and Mentha piperita L. (Lamiaceae) were obtained from plant culture of the Crop Research Institute, Prague. They were ovendried at 40 C for 72 h, stored at room temperature and milled prior to extraction experiments. 2.2. Insects The housefly Musca domestica L. (Dip., Muscidae), larvae 4th instar and adults 3-4 days old, Spodoptera littoralis (Lep., Noctuidae) (larvae 4th instar, 35 5 mg weight) and Culex quinquefasciatus SAY (Dip.) larvae 4th instar, were obtained from the stock culture maintained in the Crop Research Institute, Dept. of Entomology.

2. SPATIAL TECHNOLOGIES AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE Spatial technologies are generally considered Remote Sensing, GIS and GPS, but could also include other related technologies such as navigation systems. They depend on a number of interrelated disciplines and technologies (see figure below.) These technologies are becoming increasing seamless and being utilized both in

analysis and real time applications. The comprehensive study of spatial technologies, geographic information and the supporting disciplines have now been placed under the rubric of Geographic Information Science (GIScience) (Longley 2005).
