Dataset of pedochronological data based on the results of studying the soils of the Plain Crimea

The results of the study of 130 soils of different ages (Calcic Chernozems) in the steppe zone on automorphic surfaces dated according to historical data (the first four centuries) and using archaeological methods (for the cultures of the Early Iron Age, Late Bronze and Eneolithic), made it possible to develop the chronofunction of the change in the thickness of the humus horizon in time. Representative soils of different ages are characterized by an ensemble of physicochemical properties, which creates an information basis for the selection of diagnostic indicators that form the memory of soils for four millennia.本研究针对草原地带自型地表上的130份不同年代钙积黑钙土（Calcic Chernozems）开展研究，其定年依据历史数据（公元最初四个世纪），并针对早期铁器时代、晚青铜时代与铜石并用时代的文化遗存采用考古学方法完成，最终得以构建腐殖质层厚度随时间变化的年代函数。各年代代表性土壤均具备一套完整的理化性质组合，这为筛选能够反映四千年土壤记忆的诊断指标提供了信息基础。
