Аннотация: This article presents an agrochemical assessment of soil samples from several Arctic territories collected near five polar stations: the Novaya Zemlya archipelago, the Barents Sea coast, the Taimyr Peninsula, the Izvestiy TsIK Island archipelago, and Vize Island. The study aim is to assess the availability of plant nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) in Arctic soils located near Arctic meteorological stations to assess their sustainability. The samples, collected in layers (upper 0-20 cm and lower >20 cm), were analyzed for physical clay content, total absorbed bases, exchangeable acidity, organic carbon content, and the content of plant nutrients (nitrate ions, potassium ions, and phosphorus). It was determined that all soils had optimal acidity for biota, and some sample plots had sufficient organic matter. However, almost all study areas showed low levels of nutrients and exchangeable bases. Low values for these parameters indicate that the soils are unstable and require mandatory consideration in environmental monitoring systems.
Ключевые слова: soil, nutrients, nitrogen (N), potassium (K), phosphorus (P), Arctic.
