Influence of moss Campylopus introflexus (Hedw.) Brid. on restoration of technogenic substrates of mine dumps

Abstract

The peculiarities of distribution and viability of moss Campylopus introflexus (Hedw.) Brid. have been established depending on the microclimatic conditions on the dump of „Nadiia” mine in Chervonohrad mining area (L’viv region). Сhanges of content macro- and microelements, organic carbon, pH were investigated in substrate under moss cover and in uncovered substrate without plants of these rock dumps. Participation of moss cover C. introflexus on the restoration of technogenic substrates of mine dumps was stated as a result of improvement of their edafotop properties.
