Abstract
Changes in the areas of wood and bush species in Russia are characterized based on the data of forest fund inventories for 1988–2009. Criteria are suggested for revealing the extent of climatic influence on the discovered trends. Comparisons with the results of independent field and model investigations are carried out. Climate is ascertained as the evident cause of changes in areas occupied by spruce and oak and as the probable cause of changes in the areas of black alder, poplar, and tree willows.
