Abstract

The analysis of biotic diversity using pictographs has shown various changes after long-term deforestation and under short-term disturbance of forest habitats. The biomass of small mammals was similar in all types of forest habitats; it was higher in meadows and dropped in the young (9-year) forest in the former field. The total biomass of settled and nonresident population has been considered. Though the numbers of species as well as the diversity structure vary, the biomass of settled population is similar in all types of forest habitats. Nonresident population contributes to general biomass the more the greater habitat is disturbed. The relevant sustainability of general biomass is considered in terms of biocenotic compensation. Biocenosis is regarded as a system having an inclination to “autonomous” functioning.
