Abstract—

This paper presents the results of a study of soil cover in the Mari Chodra national park in the southeastern part of the Republic of Mari El. Magnetic properties of soddy-medium-podzolic sandy loam soils and soddy-podzolic loam soils are studied. Samples are taken along the shoreline of the karst Yalchik Lake and up the slope from the lake. Based on the results of magnetic susceptibility measurements, it is shown that the studied soil profiles are characterized by both the accumulative and eluvial–illuvial distribution of mineral components, depending on the conditions of soil formation and recreational activity of the given territory. It is shown that the increase in magnetic susceptibility in the organogenic horizons of soddy-medium-podzolic and soddy-podzolic soils is due to the contribution of a ferrimagnetic component. Differential thermomagnetic analysis and decomposition of coercive spectra into components revealed that the main carriers of the magnetization of the soils are fine-grained magnetite and hematite that have a pedogenic origin.
