Abstract

 This research is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of birch layer formation in hydromorphic soils, focusing on chemical and biological processes. The results demonstrate that the formation of the birch layer is primarily influenced by groundwater level fluctuations, soil aeration, organic matter decomposition, and mineral migration. Microbiological activity plays a crucial role in accelerating organic residue decomposition and contributes to mineral precipitation within the soil profile. In addition, anthropogenic factors such as irrigation practices and inefficient reclamation measures intensify the process, negatively affecting soil fertility and ecosystem stability. The findings provide both theoretical insights and practical significance for sustainable land use, reclamation, and soil fertility management.
