DENDROCLIMOTOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF SOME SPECIES OF THE GENUS CARPINUS L.

Abstract

Biometric analysis of the processes, dendrochronological analysis, monitoring of areas where rare and endangered species are spread, and researches were conducted for the purpose of evaluation and protection of those ecosystems. In order to determine the edifying species that dominate the forest ecosystems of Hirkan flora, scientific delegations were organized to Hirkan National Park, which is the nature museum of the Republic of Azerbaijan, observations, dendrochronological studies were conducted in the area, and samples were taken from old specimens. In the territory of the National Park, the genus Carpinus L. is represented by three species - Carpinus orientalis Mill., C. betulus L. and C. schuschaensis L. The eastern hornbill is found only in a small area in the southern part of the National Park, and other species are found in a mixed state in almost all areas. A dendrochronological analysis of 2 species of the edificator genus Velas was carried out, the influence of climatic factors on the species and the dynamics of species development were studied.
