Осоково-сфагнові болота Чорногірського масиву (Українські Карпати): структура і тенденції змін

Abstract

The article presents the results of our investigation of bogs which are formed when the lakes are growing over and in the outfalls of the mountain streams of the subalpine belt of the Chornohora Ridge (the Ukrainian Carpathians). The rare association of Carex rostrata – Sphagnum riparium is described for the first time for the Chornohora. On the basis of the results of our investigations and literary sources, we depicted the general scheme of successive changes of phytocoenoses, which begin with the appearance of Carex – Sphagnum cover, and gradually turn into meso- and oligotrophic bogs. K e y w o r d s: Chornohora, subalpine belt, the bogs which appear, when the lakes are growing over, mesotrophic bogs, Carex rostrata, Sphagnum riparium.
