The influence of the soil preparation after the forest fire on the survival and growth of the selected tree species

This paper refers to the investigation of the influence of the soil preparation methods and selection of the forest tree species for the forest regeneration on the surface after the forest fire and in case of the poor coniferous forest site types. Results come from the experiment established in 1994 in Notecka Forest according to the split−plots method. Five soil preparation methods were tested (furrows, furrows with subsoiler, subsoiler, full shallow ploughing and control) and six forest tree species (Scots pine, European larch, gray alder, silver birch, pedunculate oak, red oak). On the base of the analysis of variance the height growth and survival of the tested species during 6 year period were evaluated
