Forest Resources of the Baikal Region: Vegetation Dynamics Under Anthropogenic Use

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

We review the theoretical and applications-specific issues of modeling a temporal and spatial dynamics of forest ecosystems, based on the principles of investigating dynamical models. The model used takes into account various factors affecting the change in forest areas–fires, forest diseases, cutting, urban expansion, etc. Calculation of numerous scenarios for the use of forest resources allows us to see the consequences of various managerial decisions. The user can adjust the parameters of the main cutting volume, fires and tree planting. We present the results of a computer modeling and predictive mapping for the regional model of the forest resource dynamics under anthropogenic use.
