Variation оf
Carbon Content and Reserves in Soils оf
Forest Biogeocenoses in the Southern Taiga // Forest Science (Lesovedenie).
2011. No.1. P. 52-60 (in Russian).
Some parameters for the intrabiogeocenotic
variability of carbon reserves in the litter, the carbon content and reserves in
the top mineral layer of the soils under forests of the southern taiga in
European Russia were quantified. The data obtained testify to the high variation
of carbon reserves in the soils of forest biogeocenoses. In the spruce and
small-1eaved forests, the variation coefficients of the carbon reserves in the
litter and in the top mineral layer of the soils were 44-85 and 22-32%,
respectively. The investigations
саrriеd out showed that the type of biogeoconosis, the degree of soil moisture,
and the type of parcel affect the variation of the carbon content and reserves
only in the topmost (5 cm thick) mineral layer of the soils. In the deeper
layers of the soils, this relationship was not observed. The relation between
the soil properties and the position in tessera is often hidden due to the
combined action of many other factors and is not always displayed.
