Soils swelling as a regional feature of Western Siberia
The research was to study the causes of soil swelling in Western Siberia. Studies were carried out on four stationary platforms in different climatic zones: from the sub-taiga to the southern forest-steppe. As a result of the research it was found that the level of the perched water is usually at a...
