Abstract
In the article results of comparative estimation of soil biological activity indicators on the basis of studying intensity of vegetative organic and cellulose decomposition and also oxygen consumption in zone of shrubby thickets and open steppe of West Caspian are given. Rates of vegetative organic decomposition in soils of experience sites have made 5,23 and 5,67 mg·g-1·24 h-1 and didn't differ on sites. Intensity of cellulose decomposition in open site was above and has made 6,02 mg·g-1·24 h-1 against 4,16 mg·g-1·24 h-1 in soil of site with shrubby thickets. The estimation of intensity soil oxygen consumption hasn't shown an essential difference on sites.
