ECOLOGICAL–LANDSCAPE CHARACTERISTICS OF PROTECTIVE FORESTS ON THE SOUTH-EASTERN SHORE OF LAKE ONEGO
Data representing the natural characteristics, present-day condition and consequences of the anthropogenic transformation (based on comparison with archival forest inventory data) of forests in the south-eastern part of the shore are reported. The area in question spans some 30 km from the Vodla Riv...
