Abstract

A method for the determination of the humus content and reserves in the landscapes was elaborated based on the landscape-geophysical method of studying natural territorial complexes (NTCs). Some characteristics of the spatial humus distribution in the landscapes of Georgia were revealed. For this purpose, data of long-term (1980–2005) landscape-geophysical observations and a great body of literature materials were used. For the determination of the duration of the favorable daily NTC states, the data of Georgian meteorological stations were taken. A relation between the humus amount and the state of the stex layer (pedostexes) is shown. Special attention is paid to revealing the landscapes with the maximal humus accumulation and finding out the duration of the favorable states of the NTC. A map of the humus content and reserves in different landscapes of Georgia was compiled.
