Features of forest dynamics in developed regions

Abstract

The current state of forests is characterized by massive destruction of forest biota, which leads to significant changes in the environment, biotic factors of environment formation and forest growing conditions. Anthropogenic transformation of forest growing conditions contributes to a corresponding change in forest-forming processes and the replacement of primary forests with secondary vegetation. Secondary forests form the basis of almost all economically important forests in the developed regions in general and in the study region in particular. Characteristic features of secondary forests are associated with the assessment of the restoration-age processes taking place in them. Sustainable existence of secondary forests as a reforestation failure is accompanied by sustainable recovery processes. Incompleteness has been established and the exogenous nature of sustainable-restorative successions associated with anthropogenic mass destruction of the biological environment and the corresponding transformation of forest growing conditions has been substantiated. In the developed regions, forest typology is based on characteristic features of the recovery-age dynamics, primarily of secondary forests. Determination of the forest genesis, with an effective assessment of the dynamics of natural environment, is dictated by modern forest features, and developmental needs of forest science and practical forestry.
