Gypsum content and gypsum morphotypes in irrigated soils of the Zhezkazgan Botanical Garden (Semideserts of Kazakhstan Republik)тезисы докладаЭлектронная публикация
Аннотация:The aim of the research was to identify possible changes in the quantity and nature of gypsum morphotypes as a result of 80 years of irrigation in the Zhezkazgan Botanical Garden. Zhezkazgan is located in the semi-desert zone of Central Kazakhstan. The soils of the Zhezkazgan Botanical Garden belong to Gypsysols. For all soils in the key area, the presence of a gypsum horizon in the profile at a depth of 45 to 80 cm with a content of 30-65% is characteristic, which aligns well with literary data (Soils..., 1960). In Russian literature, the deep occurrence of a gypsum horizon is often considered a characteristic feature of grey-brown desert soils (Soils..., 1960; Gerasimova et al., 1992).
