ABSTRACT Drought has an effect on hydrologic conditions and water quality under climate change. Small retention in forests is one of the priority investment programs implemented recent years, supported by European Union. This study aimed to assess ecological forest lakes using macrophytes benthos organisms diversity as indicator ecosystem climatic changes. The was carried out artificial serving surface context biodiversity changes its role water. Despite systematic maintenance activities, a...

The paper presents premises for the construction of equations water budget in atmosphere-tree stand-soil system with reference to losses mountain forest soils.The were based on results a long-term forest-hydrologic studies carried out by authors Beskid Śląski.Water properties grounds soil profiles and specific hydrologic these considered.The main factors affecting balance slopes orographic conditions, share skeleton parts profile tree stand.Therefore, loss should consider: 1) input solar...

• Application of Beer’s law to model solar transmission through a tree stand. Approach is based on volumetric biomass density, including stems and branches. Algorithm estimate stand’s vertical density distribution. Model parameters depend easily measurable standard biometric features trees. The computation scheme readily adaptable multi-storied multi-species stands. Solar radiation key factor which affects the hydrological balance water exchange between stand, atmosphere ground.
