Ecological-geographical aspects of soil complex types allocation at the Ukok Plateau using remote sensing studies

  • Published:
Contemporary Problems of Ecology Aims and scope

Abstract

This paper considers the possibility of creating mesoscale soil maps of the natural systems of the Ukok Plateau on the basis of remote sensing studies, principles of landscape zoning, landscape-indicator interpretation methods, and integrated analysis of the spatial-temporal characteristics of natural environment objects.
