Abstract

Рассмотрены результаты изучения процесса посткатастрофической сукцессии в лесном ландшафте Белорусского Полесья. Прослеживаются изменения различных характеристик растительного покрова (видового состава, экологической структуры, спектра жизненных форм и т.д.) по временному градиенту сукцессии. Выделены и описаны стадии сукцессии, наблюдающейся в плакорных условиях.

English Abstract

The paper studies the secondary succession process in forest ecosystems (with Byelorussian Polesye landscapes as an example). The succession stages are characterized. The dynamics of the vegetation cover (its specific structure, ecological structure, diversity etc.) is followed by the temporal secondary succession gradient. Characteristics of the vegetation cover to be used as indicators of succession stages are established.
