Models of disturbance driven dynamics in the West Carpathian spruce forests
Original language description
Disturbances of different spatial extent and intensity play an important role in the Western Carpathian Norway spruce forests. These forests are shaped mainly by severe winds, often followed by bark beetle infestations. Their intensity varies substantially, resulting in variability of disturbance regimes. Low- and moderate-severity disturbances create small-scale dynamics associated with small- and medium-sized gaps resulting from the death of individual trees or groups of them. Large stand-replacing disturbances are much less frequent but affect larger areas. In spite of such large variability of disturbance regimes, the structure of old-growth spruce stands varies less, with unimodal diameter distributions being the most common ones. In this review we discuss the possible natural mechanisms behind the relationship between the varied disturbance regimes and the rather uniform tree stand structures. We reviewed a large number of studies done in well preserved spruce stands throughout the Western Carp
