To achieve a variety of goals including the determining of soil carbon stocks and dynamics in the Northern Hemisphere,the understanding of soil degradation and the best ways to protect the fragile ecosystems in permafrost environment,further study development on Cryosol classification is being in great demand. In this paper the existing Cryosol classifications contained in three representative soil taxonomies are introduced,and the problems in the practical application of the defining criteria used for category differentiation in these taxonomic systems are discussed. Meanwhile,the resumption and reconstruction of Chinese Cryosol classification within a taxonomic frame is proposed. In dealing with Cryosol classification the advantages that Chinese pedologists have and the challenges that they have to face are analyzed. Finally,several suggestions on the study development of the further taxonomic frame of Cryosol classification are put forward.展开更多

The preventing from negativethat often has destructive cryogenic processesin the area of ice-covered permafrost soils, provided by its thawing into the marginally necessary depth in thewhole area. The simplest and the most effective engineering method of faulting as anage-old stock （reserve）of surplus moisture in the form of ice from the upper parts of permafrost soils is the creation of continuous furrows net on the wholesurface. This method also raises the fertility of soils, reducesacidity, and raises microbiological activity and the degree of internal structure decaying. Thermophysical calculations and the results of the field study in the experimental firing grounds are the availableevidences of this methodwhich raises thethermal stability of cryogenic landscapes while mastering of global climate changes in different parts of cryolithozone.展开更多

Their properties were characterized by a series of physical and chemical indices such as soil texture, field humidity, content of carbon and its group composition, рН values, exchange bases and hydrolytic acidity. The soils under study were named by World Reference Base, 2007. Conformity was considered to concern names of the studied soils with those of soil groups represented in Soil Atlas of the Northern Circumpolar Region, 2010. Iodine content in the profile of soils was under consideration. It was correlated with some physical and chemical indices, and also environmental estimation of iodine content was given for soils of the north.展开更多
