Forest fires are currently considered as a powerful environmental and active factor in modern soil formation, which has a complex multifaceted effect on the formation of soil cover of forest biogeocenoses and forest-growing properties of soils. They make significant changes in the structure and dynamics of forest communities. As a result of fires, the loss of organic carbon, an increase in acidity and the content of available phosphorus, the degradation of the permafrost horizon were established. The physical and physicochemical properties of soils change in the first years after the passed fire, and some characteristics after a while may return to their original state. At the same time, after the pyrogenic impact, the consequences will be irreversible, which will lead to the succession of ecosystems.
