Description
Summary:This article presents interconnection intraconnection facies of mountain landscapes of river valleys of the upper reaches of the Kuban Western Caucasus using geochemical methods. The study of the interconnection of the lateral relationships of chain of interrelated varieties of landscape series of facies in all geobotanical high-altitude zones allowed us to trace the distribution of chemical elements heavy metals in soil and vegetation components, facies and organisms invertebrates. The indices of multiple correlation reflect the state of the intrasystem interconnects links of the facies, their specificity and sustainability. The index values in most of the facies (except fir forests) testify to the predominance of unstable and weakly stable relations, they are more dependent on external factors and a predisposition to processes of transformation. The indices of tension bioecosystem ties allowed the typology of geochemical environments for the different facies of medium and high mountains landscapes.
