Methamorphized loamy-clayey dark-humus soils (organic-accumulative) are spread under dark coniferous-broad-leaved forests. The following soil-forming processes take part in the development of dark-humus soils: litter formation, humus formation, and podzolization. There are weak signs of structural metamorphism in the middle part of the soil profiles. The common feature of the soils studied is their shallow profile (to 58 cm). The water-physical properties and structural-aggregate state of the dark-humus soils exposed to technogenic impact have got worse. Nevertheless, the physicochemical properties remained unchanged.
