ESTIMATION OF POSSIBILITY FOR SUSTAINABLE RAISED BOG’S USE IN REGION OF EXPLORATION OF SOLID MINERAL DEPOSITS
Abstract
Significant surface flow redistribution is the result of solid mineral deposit exploitation. North taiga region is characterized of high bogging level. Raised bogs of north taiga region are subjected to surface flow redistribution. Woodless raised bogs of the Russian north were historically used as routes of track-type cross-country vehicles. Nowadays vegetation and soil cover of raised bogs are characterized with significant level of disturbance. At present time, raised bogs are used as receivers of the surface and ground water excess of deposit exploitation. Traces of track-vehicles are the additional factors of surface and soil flows redistribution. The research shows that sampled bogs were characterized with significant disturbance degree. The track-vehicle traces of different age were discriminated. Mossy cover disturbance, caused by track-vehicle traffic may reach 1 meter by depth and 300-500 meters by width. Disturbed area percent of the individual bogs reaches 30-52\%. Sustainable land use of raised bogs of deposit exploitation area in north taiga region requires significant actions of mossy cover disturbance consideration.
