Modern Genetic and Dynamic Forest Typology: Priority Development Areas and Outstanding Problems

The success of forest management depends to a large extent on the ecological classification on which it is based. The aim of this work is to review the current status of forest management, priority lines of development, and unresolved problems in genetic and dynamic forest typologies. Papers were searched using the national database Elibrary. We selected and analyzed 94 journal articles with a DOI from the last 10 years. It has been established that the primary scientific focus of genetic and dynamic forest typologies remains the formulation of a conceptual framework for the comprehensive representation of forest dynamics. This evidence demonstrates that, in the context of contemporary global change, these typologies offer the most robust foundation for sustainable forest management. It has been proven that these typologies are currently being developed in parallel, with an emphasis on building on their scientific basis and integrating the strengths of the European Forest Ecological Classifications and the Braun-Blanquet approach. The results of this research can be used to provide the scientific basis for the study and classification of boreal vegetation, as well as the scientific basis for sustainable forest management and reforestation.
