Abstract: | The role of moose in the dynamics of structural, physical, and chemical parameters of a forest community is considered using an example of a southern taiga wood-sorrel spruce forest. It is shown that the activities of these animals affect the vertical structure of the underbrush and understory layers, the dynamics of phytomass accumulation, and the state of the ground vegetation. Changes in the nitrogen and hydrocarbon flows through the ecosystem under the effects of moose activities are analyzed. |
