Abstrakt

Growth variation of Scots pine stands in a heavy polluted region (southwestern Poland) was investigated through the use of gradient studies. It was found that in the forests affected by emissions from a zinc and lead smelter, as well as a coal-fired power plant the stand productivity was strongly controlled by soil contamination with heavy metals. The significant correlation between the amount of heavy metals accumulated in upper soils and the volume increment of Scots pine stands was established.
