Abstract
The data of the researches describes the were to establish the species composition of pasture cenoses and the productivity potential of light-chestnut and meadow-chestnut soils under different climatic conditions and in different periods of the year in the Terek-Kuma lowland of the North-Western Precaspian. Two peaks of productivity of phytocoenosis have been observed: the first is – ephemeral synusia in the middle of May- early June; second – motley grass and saltworts in the second half of September. The data on receipt of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) on the soil surface and the coefficient of its use over the years and periods of the year depending on the hydrothermal conditions and dynamics of harmful salts in the soil are given. On light-chestnut soil formed cereals-wormwood, grass-cereals, wormwood-ephemeral in combination with wormwood-saltworts association, and meadow-chestnut soil – ephemera-wormwood. The phytocenosis on light-chestnut soil is inherent in the maximum species diversity – 35 species. On meadow-chestnut soil there are only 25 species. The items of the changes in the species composition of phytocenoses depending on the environmental factors are considered. The data in this article support and augment information presented in the research articles [1–7].
