摘要

The paper provides information concerning the growth of pine, spruce, oak, beech and fir stands based on the research conducted by the European Forest Institute in a number of the European countries and in Poland. Noteworthy i.a. is the increase in volume increment of spruce and pine in some stands in Germany up to 250% of the values given in the yield tables. Since the early fifties of the past century beech and sessile oak in Bavaria have exhibited an increase in the height growth and volume increment. Their values markedly exceed those provided in the tables. Fir, similar to spruce, pine and beech shows the reduction in the increment and dieback in the regions under heavy industrial pollution. However in other regions under the impact of air pollution the response of pure and multispecies stands with the share of fir was positive. In Poland, a rapid decline in the dbh increment in three tree species (fir, spruce, pine) in the seventies was greater than in the sixties. In 1981-1989, fir showed a favourable growth in diameter; this positive tendency was noticed in the whole range of fir distribution in Poland, though the increment did not return to the level before its decline. The pine increment regenerated after 1990. The poorest increment was found in spruce in the eighties following its collapse in the seventies (Zywiecki and Slaski Beskid).
