COMPETITIVE RELATIONS OF PINE FOREST STANDS IN RECREATIONAL PARK PLANTATIONS IN THE CITY OF YEKATERINBURG
The article is devoted to evaluation of the relationship between trees in the plantation under the influence of environmental factors, technogenic and human factors. The studies were based on data obtained from permanent sample plots (PSP) located in the forest stands of the park zone in the city of Yekaterinburg. In all, there were examined three variants of competitive relations determination: trunk diameter at breast height, tree height and diameter of the tree crown. The obtained results allow to predict the needed structure of pine stands, as well as to model the process for carrying out economic activities in forest ecosystems.
