The present state of the bogs in the projected impounding zone of the Boguchanskoye reservoir

Presented are the results from field surveys of the bogs in the area of the projected Boguchanskoye reservoir. The study revealed their main types and provides a brief geobotanical description of the vegetation as well as the data on the waterlogging of the bogs, the thickness of peat beds, and granulometric composition of underlying materials. A classification of the kinds of peat is compiled.
