Forest-climate region as elementary climate taxon of forest-type classification
Journal Title: Лісівництво і агролісомеліорація - Year 2013, Vol 122, Issue
Abstract
The conception of "climate region" as an elementary climate taxon (klimatop) – territory, homogeneous for the growth of higher plants, is justified. Objective measure of such uniformity is the formation of one type of forest (steppe) on loam the watershed . This area is also very perspective for use as a basic unit of forest growth zoning. Climate and habitat type in unity are the "type of site condition " (TLC) – ecotope, type environment. Differences in soil conditions within the climate region formed habitat types - edatopes, land types .
