Holocene fire dynamics and forest composition in the Elbe Sandstone area

Original language description

Large areas of North Bohemia are underlain by sandstones shaped by water erosion, producing a highly variable relief of deep gorges and exposed rock plateaus. This strongly affects vegetation composition which reflects local conditions and produces a patchy mosaic of forest type. One question that has not been answered is the former extent and fire history of relict Pinus silvestris forests, expected in extreme habitat. Our results ahow that the extent of Pinus silvestris dominated forests is greater than suggested by previous palynological data. This may have been caused by exclusion of fire-intolerant species from vegetation.
