THE ANTHROPOGENIC TRANSFORMATION OF THE POST-AGRICULTURAL FORESTS OF THE SOUTHEASTERN PART OF THE SVERDLOVSK REGION

Abstract

The paper studies the forest communities in the southeastern part of the Sverdlovsk region (Kamensky district) excluded from agricultural activities after the economic reforms of the 1990s. The comparative analysis of the state of these forests was carried out on the basis of geobotanical descriptions performed in 2011—2012 and archival materials (1992—1993). The database includes 34 descriptions. The proportion of synanthropic species in the community over the past period has changed little and does not exceed a fifth of the species composition. The basis of the synanthropic fraction is apophytes. The part of adventive species is insignificant. The invasion of Malus baccata (L.) Borkh. into communities has been registered. The primary birch forests are being restored in the central and eastern parts of Kamensky district.

Key words

Phytodiversity, small-leaved forests of the Trans-Urals, synanthropization index.
