The Regional Changes of Climate as Primary Causes of Strong Withering of Pine Stands in Volyn Polissya
Since the beginning of 21 century it has been established that the phenomenon of unprecedented degradation of pine-woods acquires global character in all continents. In recent years, Ukrainian Polissya has also recorded a progressive increase of threatening associations of pine stem pests in combina...

Since the beginning of 21 century it has been established that the phenomenon of unprecedented degradation of pine-woods acquires global character in all continents. In recent years, Ukrainian Polissya has also recorded a progressive increase of threatening associations of pine stem pests in combination with the ophiostamoid fungi. In order to successfully resist the negative phenomenon, it is not only necessary to know the mechanism of his motion but also reasons or factors of appearance. In the research we analysed the archival metrological data from weather-stations in Kovel for period from 1946 to 2015 to observe general trends and patterns of climate in the area of location of the forests. Our work has revealed the following results. Firstly, withering of new type in the Volyn region, on the basis of which there is the destruction of pine-tree by aggressive barrel wreckers and pathogenic fungi, began to emerge in significant amounts in the last 2 years. During the inspection of pine plantations it was found that recently they have operated in fundamentally changed forest site conditions, where we observed an expressive deformation of hydrosite in direction of growth of dryness.
