Abstract
The particle size distribution (PSD) and the content of organic carbon (Corg) in dry and water-stable aggregates were determined in the upper layer of chernozem under arable land and shelterbelt. In water-stable aggregates, the Corg content is 1.2-1.5 times higher than in dry sieving aggregates. Dry sieving and water-stable aggregates of arable chernozem consist of particles identical in terms of the PSD. And in the chernozem under the shelterbelt the content of physical clay increases with a decrease in the size of the aggregate in water-stable aggregates isolated from the fraction of dry sieving < 1 mm.
