Dynamics of environmental conditions in landslide relief on Cape Mayak (Kerch Peninsula)
Abstract
The paper examines and analyzes specific geobotanical descriptions of landslide relief forms 2 km north of the village of Mayak (Kerch Peninsula) formed as a result of intermittent exogenous geological processes: a beach composed of shell detritus, gravel and pebbles; a dead cliff in clayey-marly deposits; a ridge-andhummock surface of a landslide body with closed depressions; a deluvial-proluvial train that partially filled the rear depression at the head of the landslide body; an erosion trough that dissected the landslide failure wall; a fragment of a flattened old landslide failure wall preserved from erosion. Original data on the position of phytocenosis species on the gradients of environmental factors in landslide relief forms were obtained using the Pover program after processing the Ecodata database.
