Abstract
The purpose of this research is to study soil fertility in lawn areas with different microclimatic environmental conditions. Soil sampling was carried out on the territory of six public green spaces in St. Petersburg: Obukhov Square, Ivan Fomin Garden, Murinsky Park, Udelny Park, Yuzhno-Primorskiy Park, Ivanovka River Square. The determination of the main agrochemical indicators was carried out in the laboratory according to generally accepted methods in several repetitions. These studies are carried out within the framework of the interdisciplinary project of the Russian Science Foundation with the support of the administration of St. Petersburg «Lawn as an indicator of a sustainable urban environment and adaptation to climate change». The study of the soil conditions of lawns is one of the important components in the planning of care and maintenance measures. The data obtained showed that the soils in the studied territories are poorly supplied with potassium and phosphorus; nitrogen supply differs, but most soils are poor ones. High positive correlation between the content of available potassium and the content of available phosphorus in the studied soils is revealed.
