Abstract
The informative importance of one of the main signs characterizing humic acids of soils is considered, at diagnostics of the environment of their formation both at present and in the past. It is shown that the ratio of elements in humic acids exactly corresponds to the landscape conditions and quantitative characteristics of climatic indicators. They persist in time and can serve as one of the reliable indicators estimating the environment of different periods in paleogeografic history.
