Features of the Microelement Composition of Soils in West Siberia and Their Reflection in Regional Biogeochemistry, Ecology, and Soil Science

V. B. Ilyin, A. I. Syso

Abstract

A diverse natural variety of the bulk content of microelements due to differences in the genesis of sediments and the leading role of fine particles in them is discovered in the soils of West Siberia. Several natural soil-geochemical provinces and industrially polluted territories have been revealed, in which there is or can be imbalance of chemical elements in alimentary chains. A promising character of the use of relations between the bulk content of separate microelements for investigating the genesis of soil-forming rocks and soils is demonstrated.
