The formation of the stand structure interacts with the processes of growth and competition. Previous observations mainly focused on the analysis of the type of tree distribution resulting from these processes. Development of spatial diversity of tree parameters is less known issue. The research was carried out in mountain Norway spruce stands with a large variety of taxation parameters located in...
This work presents the findings of a study concerning the variability in the density of oven-dry silver birch wood, depending on the geographical placement of tree stands, of the age and thickness of the trees, the influence of the forest habitat type and interactions occurring between chosen factors. The study was carried out on wood from trees aged approx. 30, 50 and 70 years old in 12 forest districts...
The article presents the results of the survey on the preferences of disabled people on wheelchairs for selected features of recreation in forests. The study was conducted in 2015, including a sample of 108 people over the age of 18 interviewed simultaneously in the Poland and Czech Republic (52 interviews in Poland, 56 in the Czech Republic). Respondents were questioned both at the premises of the...
Timber hauling from the forest, either directly to the consumer or to the place of transshipment for a rail transport, is carried out by vehicles adapted to the transport of long or short logs and medium−sized wood. In Poland, regulations restrict the total weight of a vehicle traveling on roads, which consists of the weight of the empty vehicle and the weight of the load. When transporting the wood,...
The aim of the study was to demonstrate how the trophy quality of antlers of the red deer stags living in two large forest complexes in the Mazowsze region (central Poland) differs from those inhabiting other regions of the country. The study used the data describing the body and antlers weight of 272 stags shot in 2005−2014 in two large, separated from each other, forest complexes of Spała and Gostynin...
Paper discusses the influence of site quality on self−thinning process in silver birch stands growing on abandoned farmlands in Mazowieckie region (central Poland). Number of trees in a stand decreases with increasing age. The better the site (the higher site index value), the higher number of trees can be observed. However at the age of 10 difference between sites of various quality (site index)...
The paper presents the tables for indirect determination of the age of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) trees basing on easy to measure dendrometric parameters. We elaborated empirical formulae that enable deter− mination of tree age using total tree height, breast height diameter and stump diameter as the predictors. Data was collected in 40 pure silver birch stands growing on former farmlands...
