Высотное распределение сосудистых растений северо-западной части плато Путорана

Abstract

The analysis of vegetation high-altitude explanation on 2 sites of the northwest part of the Putorana plateau – west part of Glubokoje lake and east part Lama lake is carried out. Also, comparison of altitudinal zonation with the existing data for the South-West of Putorana plateau is conducted. The scheme of altitudinal zonation of the area of the 6 belts is proposed. There are belts of forest, open woodland, subalpine shrubs, alpine meadows, alpine tundra and cold mountain deserts. Within the forest belt there are 3 subbelts allocated – lakeside low terraces, secondary forest of high terraces and properly of forest and open woodlands. The difference of high-rise distribution of vegetation from other areas of the plateau, and its specifics for each of sites is noted as the general in general. The difference in high-altitude structure of sites is caused both by specifics of a relief, and features micro and mesoclimate of areas of the Glubokoje lake, the plateau which is on the suburb, and the easternmost tip of the Lake Lama located in the depth of mountains and partially isolated from the dominating western atmospheric transfer.
