Evaluation of changes in the tree species composition of Czech forests
- Mendel University of Agriculture and Forestry, Faculty of Forestry and Wood Technology, Brno, Czech Republic
The tree species composition of forests in the Czech Republic has changed due to the human impact over the time. Nowadays, the idea of reducing the area with spruce stands and of increasing the area with broadleaved stands is widely discussed. The paper compares the target species composition with the presentone and creates four groups of areas with the largest and/or negligible differences between the target and the actual tree species composition using the Czech typology school.
Keywords: Forest Natural Regions; target management set of forest site types; coniferous trees; broadleaved trees; tree species composition; original tree species composition; target tree species composition
