Ecological features of floristic composition formation in zone influenced by Southern Urals opencasts

Abstract

The data research carried out on the territory of the mining complexes in the Southern Urals, in particular in the Chelyabinsk region, the Republic of Bashkortostan and the Orenburg region, is presented. The influence of the mining complex opencasts on the process of vegetation colonization of the territory adjacent to them are considered. The total number of plant species has been determined, and the process of renaturalization of the technogenic landscape near the opencasts of mining complexes has been characterized. An ecological inventory of vegetation in the zone influenced by opencasts was carried out.
