Hydrological effects of forest soil are the foundation of the ecological and hydrological functions of forest. The hydrological effects of forest soil were studied based on soil bulk density, porosity, soil water holding capacity and infiltration capacity in six typical forest types of the mountain area, Northern Hebei, China. The result showed that the highest and lowest mean bulk densities were 1.21 g/cm3 and 1.00 g/cm3 in soils of Larix principic-rupprechtii pure forest and Betula platyphylla pure forest, respectively; the highest and lowest total porosity values were 50.75% and 42.58% in soils of B. platyphylla pure forest and Pinus tabulaeformis-Quercus mongolica mixed forest, respectively. The soil water holding capacity of P. tabulaeformis pure forest was the most powerful and amounted to 241.00 t/hm2, and L. principic-rupprechtii pure forest was the worst and the value was 57.75 t/hm2. As for soil infiltration capacity, the highest and lowest steady infiltration rates were 15.00 mm/min and 0.68 mm/min in soils of P. tabulaeformis pure forest and L. principic-rupprechtii pure forest, respectively.
