Abstract

Building of man-made industrial complexes in natural landscapes created the necessity to study the changes of the properties of soils, which lost their natural state. The most productive way of monitoring these changes is to study natural–technogenic soil catenas. The article reflects the results of a regional research made by the authors. It provides the characteristics of a representative catena, formed in conditions of technogenesis. The estimation of morphological, physical–mechanical and chemical properties of technogenic surface formations created due to underground coal mining, natural soils and man–made chemozems was given.
