The studies on the moraine complex of the Maly Aktru glacier (Altai, Russia) revealed multidirectional correlations of microbial functional diversity and microorganisms population density depending on the temperature regime of their habitats on the moraines. The closer to the glacier, the bigger functional diversity of microorganisms and the less the density of their populations are. The decrease in the higher plants diversity and the projective cover of plant communities on the whole is linearly related to proximity to the glacier.

Abstract
The studies on the moraine complex of the Maly Aktru glacier (Altai, Russia) revealed multidirectional correlations of microbial functional diversity and microorganisms population density depending on the temperature regime of their habitats on the moraines. The closer to the glacier, the bigger functional diversity of microorganisms and the less the density of their populations are. The decrease in the higher plants diversity and the projective cover of plant communities on the whole is linearly related to proximity to the glacier.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
