Abstract

Jodlowski M.: Geographical controls on the course of the upper mountain pine (Pinus mugo) limit in the Tatra Mts. Ekológia (Bratislava), Vol. 25, Supplement 1/2006, p. 105-114.

The pattern of forest - alpine tundra ecotone has been investigated in six valleys in Tatra Mts: the Kezmarska, the Batizovska, the Velicka, the Ziarska, the Mala Laka and the Bielovodská dolina valleys. They have been chosen on the basis of their predominant aspect, variability of geology and relief, and either peripheral or central location within the massif. Approximately 63.5 km of krummholz line were ...
