Results of long-term studies in middle-taiga pine forests on sandy podzols after controlled surface fires are presented. The changes in the soil hydrothermal conditions caused by the pyrogenic transformation of the soil and the pyrogenic and postpyrogenic changes in other components of the forest biogeocenoses were revealed. Along with the general character of the changes in the soils' hydrothermal conditions, some differences in the degree of their manifestation between different regions due to the different fire intensities were revealed. It was concluded that the pyrogenic impact disturbed the existing material and energy exchange between the atmosphere and the soil, which is the main process of soil formation and development. Consequently, forest fires are a powerful and active factor of recent pedogenesis.
