СПЕЦИФИКА ФОРМИРОВАНИЯ БУРОЗЁМОВ НА ОСТРОВАХ ЗАЛИВА ПЕТРА ВЕЛИКОГО (ЮГ ДАЛЬНЕГО ВОСТОКА)

The study focuses on specifi c traits of burozem formation on the Peter the Great Bay islands (south of the Russian Far East) and particularly on specifi cities of climate conditions, vegetation, relief, parent rocks and geochemical effect of the sea. It is shown that the most widely here are spread burozems, typical under thin grass broad-leaved forests, dark burozems under thin oak forests with well-developed grass cover, dark humic-illuvial burozems under grassshrub associations. It has been found out that under the progressing anthropogenic transformation of broad-leaved forests, has been traced conjugated increase of geochemical infl uence of the sea on burozem formation patterns that has determined the specifi c traits of their morphological structure, physical and chemical properties and humus formation and accumulation.
