Abstract

Significant changes occurring in the forest stands in many developed regions of the Tatarstan Republic are stated. It is concluded that indigenous forest communities are replaced by derivative ones, with a predominance of pioneer and serial plant species. The incomplete nature of the reforestation place in the surveyed forests was revealed. The author’s interpretation of the factors determining the predominance of derivative forest communities and the incomplete nature of regeneration shifts in modern forests is presented. Attention is drawn to the instability of modern, so-called sustainable-derived forest communities. The results of a study of forest successions are proposed for consideration. It is proposed to classify forest successions with observed restoration of primary and conditionally primary forests as typical restoration ones. In cases where the restoration of indigenous communities cannot be predicted and is delayed indefinitely, these forest successions are proposed to be characterized as sustainable-restorative. Age succession is common in primary forests. Typical restoration successions occur in short-term or long-term forests with corresponding short-regeneration and long-regeneration successions. Sustainable-regenerative successions are characteristic of sustainable-derived forests. Irreversibly derived forests with irreversible successions require further study. We consider it relevant to further stereomatize forest successions based on the observed results and prospects of forest restoration processes.
