Abstract
The changes in the geometric pattern of the pore space of plowed gray forest soils during their mechanical compaction by wheel tractors and subsequent decompaction (regeneration of structure) under the effect o f natural processes are studied. Transformation of macro-and mesopores under the impact of wheel compaction of a different intensity is disc ussed separately. The possibilities for the regeneration of the pore s pace structure of compacted soils during one growing season are consid ered.
