The most recent version of the wind damage risk model was published in 2012. The model is based on eleven stand characteristics of which stand damage that occurred in the last decade is among the most important ones. It is expressed as the volume of wood obtained from wind−broken and wind−thrown trees as well as of deadwood. Not taking this feature into consideration would undermine the value of this damage risk factor. In the study, the material contained in the database of the State Forests Information System was used to develop a model for calculating the volume of wood obtained from wind−broken and wind−thrown trees as well as of deadwood. This allowed to apply the stand damage risk model to determine, inter alia, the risk of damage in a multi−variant forecast of timber resources.
BlackBridge imagery is one of the new means of information used in forest condition analysis. Rapid Eye satellite data with a 5 m spatial resolution register spectral information from 440 to 850 nm through 5 spectral bands. This range of electromagnetic spectrum provides information on plant chlorophyll content as well as cell structure. Such data allows to monitor vegetation condition. This paper focuses on a research conducted in the Sudety and Western Beskidy mountains (southern Poland). The aim of the research was to verify whether high resolution satellite imagery is applicable in detection of the damages caused by Ips typographus and acid rain in Norway spruce dominated stands through supervised classification. BlackBridge Rapid Eye satellite images from 2012 and 2013 were analysed. Various modifications of classification methods were tested, including change in combination of spectral bands. Each method resulted in different classification accuracy. Best results were observed in case of the Maximum Likelihood classification method applied on all spectral bands. The analysis showed that the time of the image registration has a significant impact on classification results. The average classification accuracy for 2012 images was 0.53, whereas for 2013 – 0.69. Moreover, information gathered from 5 m pixels is too general to classify individual dead trees in a precise manner. Tested methods are applicable only in detection of clusters of dead trees.
The aim of the study was to assess the changes occurring in the forests of the Kłodzko Region in the recent period (2001−2017), with particular emphasis on the species composition of the stands, their share in age classes and the structure of harvested timber, including live trees, deadwood, wind−broken and wind−fallen trees. The Kłodzko Region located in the Sudety Mountains (SW Poland) covers the forests of four forest districts: Lądek−Zdrój, Międzylesie, Bystrzyca Kłodzka and Zdroje. The declining share of spruce stands (from 83.5% in 2001 to 75.5% in 2017) and the increasing share of beech and larch as well as sycamore stands indicate that these forests are systematically rebuilt. The average age of the stands is very high (81 years). The share of young (<20 years old ) stands is low (only 5%), while those older than 100 years constitute about 35%. The 21st century saw a serious damage to the investigated forests caused by frequent strong winds and long−lasting droughts in the growing seasons. The three hurricanes that took place in the analysed period were the cause of the removal of 1.1 million m³ of timber in the form of wind−broken and wind−fallen trees. The drought in the growing season in 2015 resulted in the salvage harvest of deadwood with a total volume of 1.6 million m³, which corresponds to the volume of four annual allowable cuts determined for the undisturbed growth conditions of trees in the area under research. Using the wind damage risk model, the threat measure Ms reaching a value of above 40 was calculated for the forests of the Kłodzko Region, which are currently among the most threatened in Poland. This threat results mainly from the high share of spruce stands in older age classes with high average height and gaps after previous hurricanes as well as from a large area of stands located at high elevations.
The aim of the study was to present two issues concerning forests in the Sudety Mts. (SW Poland): 1) the process of tree mortality in individual years in the period between 2002 and 2018, as well as 2) the analysis of the radial growth of the main tree species (i.e. spruce, larch, beech, fir and Douglas fir). The intensity of the process of tree mortality is evidenced by the volume of wind−broken or wind−fallen trees and deadwood. The record volume of post−hurricane wood was harvested after the hurricane ‘Cyril’ (January 2007). The volume of wood removed in 2007−2008 amounted to 1.4 million m³. Quite a high share of wind−broken and wind−fallen trees in the volume of harvested wood raw material concerned the years 2002, 2003, 2006, 2008 and 2018. In the latter year, the damage was caused by the hurricane ‘Grzegorz’. The record removal of deadwood occurred in 2016 following an exceptionally severe drought in the 2015 growing season. The high volume of deadwood in 2017 and 2018 was augmented by quite a high volume of wind−broken and wind−fallen trees. Spruce and larch showed the strongest response to severe drought in 2015 by lowering the increment in diameter and producing a narrow layer of latewood, while the response of beech and Douglas fir was the slightest. No such response was found in fir. The main tree species in the Sudetes is spruce, which quickly disappears from this area. It is necessary to look for such species of trees that might replace spruce, i.e. species more suitable to changing climatic conditions, such as beech, oak, ash, sycamore, pine and larch – but also fir and Douglas fir. The latter two species show a high tolerance to changing climatic conditions, and a high potential in the production of wood.
