Popis: | The spatial regularities of the plant cover in the eastern part of the Zaisan Depression were analyzed on three ecological profiles. In the piedmont plains of the Kurshum and Manrak Ridges, the distribution pattern of plant communities is determined by the altitude above sea level, mesoelements of the topography, the formation rate of the soil cover, and the salinity of soils and soil-forming rocks. Plant communities in the Black Irtysh River Sands are formed with respect to the relief, age, and wind redeposition of sands; soil salinization in the depressions between levees; and groundwater depth and mineralization. |
