BROWN FOREST SOILS OF MOLDOVA'S CODRY: FEATURES OF MINERALOGICAL COMPOSITION AND ITS TRANSFORMATION

Full Text:

Abstract

The composition of primary and clay minerals of brown forest soils of Moldova's Codry was studied in comparison with xerophytic forest chernozems of the same ecosystem. Based on indicators of weathering it was found that transformation of silicate base in brown forest soils proceeded more intensively than in the xerophytic forest chernozems. It developed as podzolization involving gleying and was not accompanied by clayization of horizons B in a result of in situ clayization or lessivage process.
