Abstract

The paper analyzes the connection between the pollutants content (sulfur and heavy metals) in birch leaves and the vital state of the stand. It was found that metals such as cadmium, lead, copper and zinc have the greatest influence on the state of stands in the operating area of Karabashmed JSC. A positive correlation between the parameters of the vital state (defoliation, dechromation and the category of the state) and the content of these trace elements (correlation coefficients greater than 0,4…0,6) was revealed. An increase in the concentration of such heavy metals as cadmium, lead, zinc, copper and chromium in birch leaves in the trial plots closest to the pollution emission source by JSC «Karabashmed» was found.
