Hodnocení ekologických limitů a zdravotního stavu buku lesního (Fagus sylvatica) v oblasti vnějších západních Karpat
Mikulenčák, Josef
European beech is an important and irreplaceable economic tree species in the forests of the Czech Republic. This thesis was created in thearea of Outer Western Carpathians, and it focuses on evaluation of ecological limits and the health condition of beech on network-based research plots from 2th vegetation tier (280 m) after 8th vegetation tier on the Lysá Mountain (1323 m). In each research area, basic dendrometry characteristics were measured and evaluated biotic and abiotic damage was evaluated. The results indicate that optimal growth conditions for beech are in the 4th vegetation tier. In other vegetation tiers, beech is more limited by abiotic factors than by biotic factors. In the 2th and 3th vegetation tier, the growth of beech is limited by frequent occurrence of drought. In contrast in higher vegetation tiers (6th, 7th, and 8th), frost, glaze and shorter growing period associated with lower average temperatures have the highest impact on the growth of beech. High vitality, wide ecological valence, a limited amount of biotic factors which damage beech and the ability to change the growth symptoms in individual vegetation tiers made beech into one of the main edificators of vegetation tires.
Vývoj a struktura přirozeného zmlazení v NPR Razula
Mikulenčák, Josef
The National Nature Reserve Razula is a heritage of a fir-beech forest primeval character with an admixture of European spruce and sycamore maple, typical for the area of the Western Carpathians. This bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of the structure and dynamics of natural regeneration. The analysis was conducted on circular investment area, regularly situated in a square net over the entire area of the reservation. Work focuses the presence of natural regeneration of silver fir because of long term decline of its representation in the forests. Although fir is the most naturally regenerative tree species in the reservation, the individual growth rarely reaches the height of 0.5 m. The main factor is the damage by wild animals. The damage reaches nearly 60 % of individual trees higher than 0.15 m. Today there is a strong representation of beech, which thanks to its amount of natural regeneration at these habitats and ability to compensate for grazing.
