Abstract

The pedocomplex of a mesodepression with birch grove amid steppe has been studied in Novosibirsk oblast, West Siberia. This pedocomplex consists if the modern soddy solod soil (Planosol) overlying the buried organo-accumulative quasigleyic soil (Umbrisol). Several peaks of the maximum accumulation of phytoliths are seen in the profile of the soddy solod soil. The largest number of phytoliths is confined to the eluvial horizon. A significant part is represented by phytoliths of steppe grasses and rod-shaped phytoliths of dicotyledonous plants (forbs, legumes). The buried soil went through the steppe stage of development, as indicated by the predominance of phytoliths of steppe grasses, which was then replaced by the meadow-forest stage with an increase in the portion of forest and meadow grasses. The presence of diatom shells has been recorded throughout the entire thickness of the soil profile, including the buried soil. Their accumulation is associated with seasonal inundation of the mesodepression.
