Poznyakova S. Peculiarities of forest environment forming in the oak plantations of the Left bank Forest Steppe of Ukraine

Object of Investigation - process of formation of forest environment in Quercus robur plantations. The aim of investigation - study of peculiarities of formation of forest environment in oak plantations of different age in the Left Bank Forest Steppe of Ukraine. Investigations were carried out after well-known and new methods. Peculiarities of microclimate indices changes in oak plantations are stated firstly in relation of their age dynamics. Dynamics of ground vegetation in man-made oak stands of different age planted on the non-forested plots have been investigated. Age changes in the structure of grass cover of these plantations are revealed. Comparative analysis of grass vegetation in oak plantations in the different forest types has been made. Peculiarities of forest environment formation in oak plantations have been analyzed with the help of phytoindicative methods. The degree of implementation - at growing of oak stands of high productivity. Branch of implementation - forestry.
