Peculiarities of phytoindication methods for determination of forest condition types on forest monіtoring plots

Abstract

On the basis of vegetation data from forest monitoring plots methods of phytoindication assessments were proposed and tested that allow to obtain a sufficiently accurate determination of edaphic factors as trophicity and soil moisture according to edaphic grid by Alexeyev-Pogrebnyak. The limitations on application of the proposed method for determining forest condition type are following: heterogeneous conditions and/or meso- and micromozaic on monitoring plot, anthropogenic impact on forest vegetation, forest stand age stage, insufficient sample size. The boundaries of edaphic ranges of possible forest plants growing in the north-east of Ukraine according to Alekseev-Pogrebnyak grid were clarified for 50 species by trophotopes, for 61 species – by gigrotopes.
