Post-fire Restoration of Organic Substance in the Ground Cover of the Larch Forests in Permafrost Zone of Central Evenkia

摘要

The role of ground fires in transformation of organic substance in the ground cover of larch stands in the permafrost zone of Central Siberia was studied as well as the post-fire restoration dynamics of organic substance. Ground fires lead to is a considerable decrease in concentrations and resources of organic carbon and its individual fractions in the ground cover and their restoration takes many decades.
