Peculiarities of spreading of spruce stands drying in Gorgany
Journal Title: Лісівництво і агролісомеліорація - Year 2016, Vol 129, Issue
Abstract
The article deals with the characteristics of the spruce plantations drying in different orographic conditions of mountain habitats – highness of range slopes, their exposure and steepness. The empiric dependences of the drying areas on slopes steepness and precipitations have been found. Spruce sustainability indicators have also been analyzed according to its share in the stands composition, age and density of the stand. The differences in distribution of overall and partial drying types have been shown. Indexes of deadwood in various plantations are given in the article. Forestry measures have been proposed on lowering this damaging phenomenon in mountainous conditions, namely forestry regulation on the declivous and steep slopes of southern exposure.
