Abstract
An analysis is made of the data on magnetic susceptibility, content of spherical magnetic particles (SMP), content of organic carbon and morphological properties of chernozems within a small catchment of the Kursk region. A comparative analysis of the magnetic tracer methods and the soil-morphological method revealed manifestation characteristics of erosion processes on morphologically different slopes of the catchment. By analyzing the layer-by-layer content of SMP in soils of the bottom of the draw, it was possible to differentiate the accumulative layer into sublayers that formed at different periods of time with a different composition of sediments, and the mechanisms of their accumulation.
