Parcel structure of the middle taiga upland biogeocenoses within the south-eastern part of the Ustyansk Plateau
Abstract
The parcel structure of forest biogeocenoses of the watershed of the Kozlovka and the Strugnica rivers in the south of the Arkhangelsk region was studied in detail. Statistical relationships between the parameters of soils and vegetation have been revealed by the indirect ordination and correlation analysis. It was shown that the diversity of plant component of parcels in the middle taiga forests of 50-70 years of age is higher than that of soils. Different plant communities can be formed on the same soil subtypes, and the potential of indication is small. The closest connections between the parameters of soils and vegetation are characteristic of the tree and shrub layers and the upper horizons of soils (litter, humus and eluvial horizons). Differences in the composition of the ground cover of phytocenoses do not reflect the features of the soil profile structure, but are significantly associated with several chemical and physical-chemical soil characteristics.
