Abstract
Development of bog formation processes at the southern boundary of the taiga zone in West Siberia is analyzed depending on the cyclic changes of climate, which is depicted in the botanical and chemical composition of peat. It is shown that modern climate warming did not interrupt bog formation which occurs here due to forest underflooding with water of bog massifs and periodic underflooding of floodplain depressions during the cycles in wet years.
