Forestry-taxation description of plantings and soil research were conducted on permanent trial plots of the IV, VIII and XI quarters of the RSAU-MTAA Forest Experimental District. It has been revealed that the thickness of forest litter under deciduous stands is 2-5 times higher than in soils under coniferous stands. Litter thickness under deciduous stands increases in September-October by 1-3 cm as compared with the summer months.
