Researches at the “Mountain-Taiga” ecological profile (Southern Primorye)

Abstract

The idea, purpose, methods and history of the creation and restoration of the “Mountain-Taiga” ecological profile in the forests of the Mountain-Taiga Station of the FSC FEB RAS, which are a broad-leaved formation of multi-species and monodominant forests, are described. A brief description of the derived representative for Southern Primorye forest types, which form a profile in the catchment area of the Degtyarev brook (an affluent of the Komarovka River), is given. The importance of monitoring the phytocoenotic structure for identifying patterns of the forest formation process and the process of restoration of primary coniferous-deciduous forests of Primorsky Krai is shown. At the example of the Mongolian oak, the expediency of using ecobiomorphs of a forest-forming species to identify the boundaries of phytocenoses and parcels in monodominant forests is substantiated.
