Abstract

In the second half of the nineteenth century, gradual warming turned into a rapid global warming provoked. We know that forests play a key role in regulation of these processes among terrestrial biomes. In the forests of Ukraine studies of their biological productivity are executed relatively recently and so for a number of regions, including for National Nature Park “Vyzhnytskyi” there is no adequate information support and therefore this study is relevant. To determine the stocks of sequestered carbon in forest ecosystems of a region there is a requirement for a detailed information on biomass of vegetation and its dynamics. The basis for an investigation of such information is provided by a stand-wise database, so in this article we analyzed a mensurational structure of forest stands of NNP “Vyzhnytskiy” by their area, composition, age groups, plenitude and growth class that allows detailing modern condition of the park forests. The data obtained during this research will be used in the process of management in different functional areas of the park, and will help to assess their biological productivity and its dynamics.
