TYPOLOGY, CONSTRUCTION ANALYSIS AND RECREATED POTENTIAL OF SCOTCH PINE CULTURES IN MOSCOW FOREST-PARK PROTECTIVE BELT

The work is concerned with the Scotch pine and forest cultures. The aim is to develop the principles for forest-typological classification of the forest cultures, to reveal the basic culture types, to study special features for taxation construction of the culture-phytocenosises, to determine and develop the methods for evaluating recreation potential of the forest cultures. The forest-typological classification of the artificial plantings has been proposed; the types of forest cultures with participation of the Scotch pine which are characteristic for region in the vicinity of Moscow have been selected and described. The special features for taxation construction of the cultures have been investigated. The methods for evaluating recreation potential of the forest cultures have been developed.
