Abstract

As a result of intensive exploitation of coal deposits considerable reserve of disturbed land has been accumulated in Kemerovo region. In place of initially fertile land mane-made industrial landscapes are formed, parts of which are self-regenerating over time. These plots have specific structure due to composition of parent rock material, microclimate and mining technology. Gradually they fit into the surrounding biogeocoenosis, become suitable for different purposes, stop acting as a source of negative environmental effects. The research results of soil-ecological state dumps, formed by different casting technologies is presented in the paper. The results from disposal areas are compared with the results of soils characterized for the existing district. Based on the data obtained, dependence of the main physical properties indicators from the substrate on which certain types of soils were formed may be stated. These soil descri ptions illustrate the diversity and specificity of the soil cover, and various soil environmental con-sequences of recultivationtechnogenic landscapes. Here is considered the ecological significance of recultivation layer formation from favourable overburden for the development of soil and vegetation cover in technogenic landscapes.

Keywords

recultivation of disturbed land, casting, the moisture content of technogenic landscapes, schemes recultivation of disturbed land.
