Abstract

The landscape schematic map characterizing the natural and transformed geosystems in the late 19th–early 20th centuries has been compiled for the key area of the Lena-Angara plateau. The description of the natural complexes is given on the basis of reports drawn up by the Resettlement Administration from results of expedition work in 1908.
