Summary

Soils in the Sheki district of Azerbaijan exhibit distinct agricultural production characteristics that vary significantly with elevation, from intrazonal landscapes to subalpine meadows. The study identifies key diagnostic indicators and natural conditions shaping these soils, providing insights into their ecological and geobotanical properties. By analyzing vertical zoning patterns, researchers reveal how soil composition and fertility change across the south slope of the Great Caucasus, offering valuable data for sustainable land management in this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
