The magnetic profile of the soil has changed as a result of transformation of soil processes.
For the first time, measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of urban soils were carried out
For the first time, the magnetic susceptibility (MS) of three types of frozen forest soils (fawn, pale- brown and podzolic), forming on permafrost soil-forming rocks under conditions cryoarid climate of Central Yakutia.
It is shown that the composition and properties of these frozen soils, as well as the values of their magnetic susceptibility, change significantly in the process of agricultural development.
A comparative study of the magnetic properties and composition of two types of frozen soils - podzol and chernozem, formed on loose alluvial deposits of different altitude levels of the Central Yakut Plain under cryoarid climate conditions - was carried out.
It is shown that these soils, unlike zonal frozen chernozems, are geochemically subordinate, and their composition and properties vary significantly depending on the conditions of soil formation.
The frozen chernozems of Yakutia are an automorphic type of soil and are formed along the mesohighs of the floodplain terraces and the slopes of the southern exposures of the bedrock coast, under the steppe associations in the Lena River valley within the lower elevation level (100-140 m) of the Central Yakut Plain.
Using magnetic susceptibility indicator in conjunction with others allows reliably identify as the presence of buried pyrogenic humus horizons, and in general the polynomial nature of soil profiles of the studied soils.
