Abstract

The paper is devoted to solving a global problem of finding-out the types of ecosystems functioning, by means of various parameters of the small biological circulation, the base of which is the ground organic horizon. In the paper, the techniques, allowing us to solve this problem by means of ecological, mathematical and statistical methods, are described. Extensive actual, me-thodical and cartographic data are enclosed.

Keywords

ecosystem, soil laying, typification of ecosystems, ecological niches, soil and climatic factors.
