Growth characteristics of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) on Isopyro-Fagetum KOS. 62 site

Meterc, Gregor (author), Kadunc, Aleš (author)

In this paper, growth characteristics of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) stands on site of Isopyro-Fagetum KOS. 62 are analysed. The research was carried out in Zasavje, where in mature beech stands five plots measuring 30x30 m were set. All trees above 10 cm were measured and cut for stem analyses. Increment of the last 10 years is statistically significantly influenced by (chronologic) age of trees, shade effect, diameter at breast height, social class and very rarely by crown dimensions. The time of current increment culmination is dependent on age, diameter at breast height, social class and on shade effect. As regards site productivity of the analysed site, a very broad range was ascertained. Variation is almost completely explained by altitude. On three plots sites, productivity increase was confirmed, whereas on one plot the changes were not significant and on one plot site productivity decreased, probably due to the transmitter on Mt Kum.

Abstract

Prispevek obravnava rastne značilnosti bukovih (Fagus sylvatica L.) sestojev na rastišču Isopyro-Fagetum KOS. 62. Raziskavo smo opravili v Zasavju, kjer smo v bukovih debeljakih postavili 5 ploskev velikosti 30x30 m. Vse nadmersko drevje smo izmerili in posekali za debelne analize. Na prirastek drevja v zadnjih 10 letih imajo statistično značilen vpliv (kronološka) starost drevja, učinek zastrtosti, prsni premer, socialni razred in presenetljivo redko dimenzije krošnje. Čas kulminacije tekočega priraščanja je odvisen od starosti, prsnega premera, socialnega razreda in učinka zastrtosti. Ugotovili smo izredno širok razpon produkcijske sposobnosti analiziranega rastišča. Variiranje v produkcijski sposobnosti je praktično v celoti odvisno od nadmorske višine. Na treh ploskvah smo potrdili dvig produkcijske sposobnosti rastišča, na eni spremembe niso statistično značilne, na eni izmed ploskev pa se je produkcijska sposobnost rastišča, domnevno zaradi vpliva oddajnika na Kumu, znižala.
