In the last decades urban soils have been studied intensively (Baize and Rossignol,1992; Beyer et al.,1995; Burghardt,2000; Craul,1992;Hollis,1991; Thornton,1991; ets.).Studies,conducted in Moscow,allow us to point out the basic principals of profide structure of anthropogenically-transformed and man-made soils (anthropogenic soils) of the recreational territories (parks,botanic and public gardens,boulevards).The profile of anthropogenie soils consisted of three parts:the upper organomineral part,the most suffered from man activities middle part and lower part (table).The different combination of these parts forms the variety of anthropogenic soils of city recreational territories.The upper layer is the result of present-day condition of the territory (technology of planting,looking after plantings).This layer is represented by humus-accumulative horizons (Au),organomineral mixtures (RAT),or peat-containing mixtures (RT) depending on composition of organic matter and presence of artifacts.The middle part of soil profile consisted of the part of profile of urbanozem or undisturbed soil; filled or scalped rock and shows primary aspects of urban influence that formed this profile (accumulation of cultured layer,man-caused changes of relief,chemical contamination,ets).The lower part of the profile is represented by buried natural soil,leveling or undisturbed rock,sometimes-by cultured layer.Table.Structure of anthropogenic soils of the recreational terrirories.The name of soil is given after upper and middle parts of profile.Composition,structure and thickness of the middle part of profile define one of three groups of anthropogenic soils and soil-like formations:surface-transformed,deeply-transformed soils and technozem (soil-like formations).Surface-transformed soils have disturbed natural structure to the depth of <50cm.Deeply transformed soils are characterized by sequence of Urbic horizons in the middle part of the profile.The upper horizon with a high organic matter content that formed on the mineral ground is typical for technozems.The composition and properties of the upper layer define subgroup,that reflected in soil name by prefix-"agro","urbo","techno".Regular digging on flowerbeds leads to developing of "agrosoils".Presence of organomineral and peat-containing mixtures is typical for "technosoils".Urbic or weak humus horizon with artifacts is diagnostic for "urbosoils".Typical for recreational territories regular reclamation leads to forming special soils-recreazems,which have at least 15 cm humus horizon.Soils with the rich humus horizon deeper than 40 cm,which could be find out in old (>100 years) parks and gardens are called "culturozem" or "hortisol".Conclusions.The anthropogenic soils of the urban recreational territories were formed under the conditions of combined action of the classical factors of soil forming,the anthropogenic impact and specific factors related to,reclamation of the soils.As a result,these soils differ from both urban and cultivated agricultural soils.
