Abstract
Results of geochemical study of the Holocene soils on the floodplain of the Dnieper River are presented. Spatial differences in the particle-size, min eralogical, and chemical compositions and the content of microelements in a lluvial soils along the valley are described. Special attention is paid to age-induced differences in the chemical composition of pedorelic soils of t he Early, Middle, and Late Holocene and the trend of geochemical evolution in alluvial soils of the Holocene.
