INFLUENCE OF REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY ON THE QUALITY OF PINE STAND FROM THE POINT OF THE EXERGETIC APPROACH VIEW

In this paper we investigated the influence of geographical location of Eurasian regions and forest typology on the calculation of entropy and exergy of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.). The actual material was taken from the growth progress tables (GTR) presented in the monographs of V.A. Usoltsev. It has found that the rating of regions by the value of stand exergy is headed by the regions of the Centre of the European part of Russia and Belarus. It has obtained that the entropy value per tree has the same tendency in the regions as the exergy ranking, but with small deviations. It is indicated that it is necessary to carry out further research, as well as to refine the existing GTRs and develop new GTRs for other species of plantations under different growing conditions.
