Abstract
The main types of forest plant communities in the southern part of the Central Siberian Plateau (the lower reaches of the Podkamennaya Tunguska River Basin) were separated. Basic ecological gradients crucial for formation and functioning of these types of plant communities were identified using the methods of ordination.
Highlights
Inventory of alpha and beta diversity, identification of ecological peculiarities and geographical regularities of contemporary vegetation functioning are crucial for zonation and mapping of large areas
The study area is located in the southern part of the Central Siberian Plateau (61° N, 96° E)
Type 2: Siberian pine–spruce bilberry–grass–green-moss forests occupy the tops of hills and the upper parts of the gentle slopes of all exposures at altitudes of 400–700 m above s.l
Summary
Inventory of alpha and beta diversity, identification of ecological peculiarities and geographical regularities of contemporary vegetation functioning are crucial for zonation and mapping of large areas. It plays an important role in studying the dynamics of ecosystems, developing strategies and specific approaches for rational nature management and nature conservation. This is relevant for poorly investigated territories of the northern part of Siberia. The aim of the study is to identify the typological diversity and ecological regularities of forest vegetation of South Evenkia in the basin of the lower reaches of the Podkamennaya Tunguska River. We made an ecological-phytocenotic classification of forest vegetation of this region followed by an ordination of forest plant communities to detect the environmental factors driving their structure and composition
