Abstract

Significant changes occurring in the forest area of the Republic of Tatarstan have been studied. It is concluded that primary forest communities are replaced by secondary forest growth, with a predominance of pioneer and seral plant species. The incomplete nature of the restoration taking place in the surveyed forests was revealed. The author's interpretation of the factors determining the predominance of secondary forest communities and the incomplete nature of restoration shifts in modern forests is presented. Attention is drawn to the instability of modern, so-called sustainable-derived forest communities. The study results of reforestation successions are proposed for consideration. It is proposed to classify reforestation successions with observed restoration of primary and conditionally primary forests as typical restoration ones. In cases where the restoration of primary 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 systematize forest successions based on the observed results and prospects of forest restoration processes.
