- Abstract
The undertaken research is found in the current scientific and practical concerns regarding the accumulation of knowledge regarding the physical-geographical conditions as elements defining the quality of ecopedological resources. Ecopedological resources constitute a subsystem that is closely related to plant and animal associations, together forming terrestrial ecosystems, they have the ability to transform cosmic energy into potential energy that can be stored in plant and animal biomass. Soil is a unique environment that contains energy accumulated through a multitude of pedogenesis, non-renewable, inherited processes and solar energy is linked to the existence of mankind. The Almăj Valley area, in this paper, is a project comprising seven territorial administrative units included in this area on an area of 109518 ha. The paper provides basic information and methodological elements regarding the qualitative evaluation of ecopedological resources and possible pressures on them, thus integrating into the wider field of complex studies of natural resources. The physical and geographical conditions of soil formation and evolution are briefly presented, mentioning how the zonal peculiarities of the considered space determine a great diversity of ecological conditions.
