Ecological and geochemical effect of evapotranspiration in the mountain-taiga and subalpine belts of the Northern Urals

The study presents data on the annual transport of 72 elements through evapotranspiration calculated for two mid-elevation mountain landscapes of the Northern Urals. It was found that the main characteristics of element transport in the mountain-taiga and subalpine belts are controlled by combined e...

Description
Summary:The study presents data on the annual transport of 72 elements through evapotranspiration calculated for two mid-elevation mountain landscapes of the Northern Urals. It was found that the main characteristics of element transport in the mountain-taiga and subalpine belts are controlled by combined ecological and geochemical factors. A mechanism is described for changes in some environmental parameters through the air-borne migration of evapotranspiration products .
