Abstract: | Geobotanical analysis of aquatic and wetland plant communities of the Tanalyk River has been performed in the zone of impact
from the abandoned Kul-Yurt-Tau pyrite mine. The results show that pollution of the river with highly mineralized runoff leads
to a decrease in the β-diversity and synthetic characteristics of plant communities (α-diversity, total coverage, and herb
layer height) and in the aboveground phytomass of dominant species. |
