Uprooting trees and pit – mound micro topographies are due to creation of heterogeneity condition in soil ecosystem. Pay attention to mountainous condition of hyrcanian forests in Iran and presence of trees with high diameters (old trees), therefore, it is imagined that many of trees are prone to uprooting. Thus, the aim of this research is studying variability some of soil physico - chemical ...

  Bracket fungi are the most important macroscopic fungi in the forest as trees are parasitic and saprophytic . This aim of this study is investigation on relate of between some of the characteristics of host and frequency of bracket fungi in district one of Shastkolate forest of Gorgan . Inventory of trees infected by bracket fungi was done using two strip transects and Factors , including the...

It is necessary to calculate the volume increment for estimation of annual allowable cut in forestry plants. In order to compute increment of main species in district one of Dr. Bahramniaʹs forest, firstly, forest divided to four forest zonation based on basal area ratio of tree species including Fageto-Carpinetum, Carpineto-Parroetum, Parrotio- Carpinetum and Mixed types. Then, 140 circular pl...

Local people are always dependent on cutting down and pollarding of Zagros forests trees to provide their livelihoods needs such as house heating, cooking, supply of livestock forage and building materials. The stakeholders also have many conflicts in terms of forest utilization, which is the main cause of many irregularities in the forest management. The present study was conducted to investig...

Awareness of quality and quantity of wood produced in forestry plans play an important role in management of this product in market. The objective of this study that has been carried out in 7th watershed of north forest of Iran was to determine effective factors on wood breakage in felled trees, compare wood losses during felling and identify wood losses in felled trees and methods of their pre...

The carbon sequestaration by plants and soil is one of the easiest and the most econimical ways to reduce atmosphere carbon. This study was conducted on the planted land use of Fraxinus rotundifolia, Cupressus arizonica, obinia pseudoacacia L., Elaeagnus angustifolia, Cedrus libani, and Quercus brantii (persica) in the Arjan plain of Fars province. For each plantation land use, there were three...

Having accurate quantitative and qualitative information about the state of forest stands, is necessary for any basic management and planning, to reduce the effects of forest degradation. The current study aimed to model the destruction of Hyrcanian forests under the effects of density and volume (per hectare) variables, using logistic regression. In total, 252 plots of 1000 m2 area were measur...
