Abstract
The dynamics of the understorey vegetation cover in anthropogenically transformed cenoses of common pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in the period 2017–2020 was studied. The studies were conducted in a diverse herbaceous group of forest types of natural origin in the Krasnoyarsk forest-steppe zone. The forest stands are characterized by I–IV classes of bonitet, density 0.5–0.9 and IV–VII class of age. Vegetation cover was studied at each monitoring site on 30 (1 m2) survey plots: species composition, projective cover, species occurrence, horizontal and vertical structure of phytocenosis. The intensity of change in species composition over a 4-year period was identified using the Serensen-Chekanovsky coefficient. Species diversity was assessed using Shannon index, recreational transformation of living ground cover – synanthropization index. Based on the results of the study, the species composition of the undergrowth and living ground cover was determined, and the features of its change in the period 2017–2020 were described. Based on the analysis of changes in species diversity, composition and projective cover of dominants and co-dominants, quantitative ratio of ecological and cenotic groups, the stages of recreational transformation of the ground cover were determined. As a result of the increased recreational load, the stage of recreational transformation of the vegetation cover changed: in sample area 1 from undisturbed to the 1st (initial) phase I stage (weak transformation), in sample area 3 – from the 1st to the 2nd (final) phase I stage. Due to the absence of anthropogenic influence, the undisturbed vegetation cover was preserved in sample area 4, whereas in sample areas 2 and 5, due to the constant recreational load, the 2nd phase I stage of vegetation cover transformation observed in 2017 remained. To reduce the impact on the lower tiers of vegetation under the canopy of pine plantations (sample areas 1–3) and to preserve its species diversity, it is possible to recommend the arrangement of a specific road-trail network.
