Journal Title: Лісівництво і агролісомеліорація - Year 2016, Vol 129, Issue
Abstract
The area distribution for oak stands of Polissia zone of Ukraine by origin, age classes, type of site conditions, relative stand density, site index and oak units in stand composition was shown in the context of administrative regions using data from subcompartment database of Production Association “Ukrderzhlisproekt”. Weighted averages of inventory indices for oak stands of Polissia were calculated for administrative areas. The predomination of middle-aged high-forest (VII–VIII age classes) and ripe short-stemmed, medium stocked (0,64–0,71) and highly productive (I–II site class) oak stands was found. A comparative study of the calculated average inventory indices were made in the context of administrative regions, origin and types of growing conditions. Forestry and environmental potential of the oak stands of Polissia as well as their natural and artificial regeneration capabilities were estimated in different types of forest site under climate change.
