In the last decades, we observed significant changes in the tree species composition in all layers of close−to−natural stands. Since the 1970s, the Forest Research Institute has collected and stored dataset from stand measurements, phytosociological and other research that are the basis for the long−term monitoring of vegetation. The aim of the research was to determine the directions of changes in...
Forests covered by various forms of nature protection are a popular resting place for the society. The choice of a certain place for the leisure depends not the attractiveness of the area, but also on its availability, the condition of the infrastructure, and on the preferences of tourists. The aim of the research was to determine the significance of the ‘Nad Tanwią’ nature reserve (‘NT’ NR) for tourism...
The aim of the study was to characterize the state and dynamics of dead wood resources in the stands of the Świnia Góra strict forest reserve, which was excluded from use for a longer period of time (from 1938/1953), and to compare the results with the state and dynamics of living trees resources. The reserve covers 51 hectares of an upland forest in the Świętokrzyska Forest (central Poland). Data...
The assemblages of Coleoptera have been examined in the managed and reserved mature pine forests of Lithuania since 1997. Beetles have been sampled from the forest litter using sieves. The present study is based on the data of 20 litter samples (10 samples per each stand) taken in the period from October 2013 to February 2014. Each sample was compiled of 5 smaller ones taking all litter (up to mineral...
The Wronie nature reserve was established in 1978 for conservation of Pomeranian fertile beech forest Galio odorati−Fagetum (=Melico−Fagetum) outside of the natural range of European beech Fagus sylvatica. Reserve is located in Golub−Dobrzyń Forest District (53°1839.52N; 18°543.89E; N Poland). The aim of our study was to determine the influence of passive protection for beech forest herb layer biodiversity...
The study analyses the spatial distribution of European yew and its co−occurrence with other trees or different individuals of the species. The study was conducted in the ‘Cisy nad Liswartą' nature reserve (50°46'27.12"N, 18°47'11.86"E). Data was collected in the whole reserve as well as on three 40×40 m study plots. The selected plots varied in terms of yew density, stand species composition...
The aim of the study was to recognise the structure (sex, height, diameter) and vitality of European yew (Taxus baccata L.) population in the ‘Cisy nad Liswartą' reserve (50°4627,12N 18°4711,86E). The field investigations were performed in years 2005−2009. We measured diameter at breast height, diameter at root collar and height of all yews in the reserve. Sex of the individuals was determined as...
Genetic variability of yew (Taxus baccata L.) trees in seven nature reserves (Jasień, Czarne Człu− chowskie, Choczewo, Wierzchlas, Wirty, Rokita and Mogilno/Stary Sącz) in Poland was investigated by RAPD methods. The results showed high genetic differences between populations ranging from 22.7% among the population of Stary Sącz and hedge (+) to 86.1% between Wierzchlas and Rokita (+). Based on the...
