In most of the open steppe belt the soil is fertile black earth. The lines also served as a basis for further expansion into the steppes. The coastal plain is mainly coastal thicket; a small area in the south-eastern coastal plain is tropical steppe. Villages tended to be larger on the south-eastern steppes than in the forested regions partly because there were fewer sources of water to settle by. The open steppe regions, moreover, lost much of what little woodland they had. The original flora and fauna were similar to those of the grasslands in the forested steppe. The most favourable habitat appears to be the moist forested steppe, and transmission gradually decreases in dry steppe, semi-desert and desert areas. But we can gauge the slow loss of comprehension of some steppe traditions if we recall the example of the ulagh/ulaq. This is sited in areas adjacent to the dry steppe with an annual rainfall of between 200 and 350 mm. In the latenineteenth century, moreover, all four steppe regions were losing population through net emigration. Our results indicate that most species of such grassdominated steppes could also be used directly without any dormancy-breaking treatment. In about half of the villages, some cereal stubble was rented out to other farmers or migrant herders (bedouin nomads from the steppe). The first of the belts is the transitional forested steppe. Middendorff disproved such a view: while steppes came into being due to dryness, tundra came into existence because of the lack of warmth. These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web.
