Enzymatic activity of soils from islands located near the right bank of the delta of the Selenga River (Baikal region)

  • Published:
Contemporary Problems of Ecology Aims and scope

Abstract

This article reports a study of the enzymatic activity of modern and lower soils of the islands and terrace floodplain close to Lobanovskaya Creek in the right bank of the delta of the Selenga River. Environmental conditions determining the variation in enzymatic activity at the sampling sites are addressed. The enzyme activity of the soils of the right-bank part of the delta is assessed and compared to that of soils of the left-bank part (sampled at sites which have different landscape and ecological parameters).
