Abstract:
The paper discusses the features of soil in the West Predkamje urbanized areas within a large urban conglomerate. Peculiarities and genesis of soils typical of northern subboreal semihumid landscape zone, deciduous landscape subzones of the studied landscape are derived. Soils formed on the eluvial-diluvial and alluvial deposits, which differ in their morphological properties are characterized. These areas are involved in long-term economic use and need special protection.
