Abstract

Wild cherry (Cerasus Avium) is one of the rare and valuable tree species in the forests of northern Iran. Understanding the ECOLOGICAL conditions where this species grows can help us improve the growing conditions for this tree so as to prevent its destruction rather to increase its populations. The objective was to study the distribution of stands of trees or of single tree in the relation to the SITE properties. to evaluate the ECOLOGICAL stability of stands of wild cherries in the forests of Northern Iran, four regions consisting of a total of 18 plots measuring 0.1 hectare each, were identified in the eastern part of northern forests, namely one SITE at 740 meters above sea level, another from 1000 to 1350 meters above sea level, two locations in Noshahr / one SITE 300 meters above sea level (Sarcheshmeh) and the second one from 1000- 1300 meters above sea level (Chenes). Qualitative and quantitative studies were made on the soils and climates of the selected SITEs. A study of vegetative cover and DIAMETER increments and volume increments and of symbiotic activity of mycorrhize with root of WILD CHERRY showed the trees were distributed from west to east and from low land to uplands, but the stands in midlands (altitude 800-1300 m) were denser. These species were distributed on the northern, north-western, north-eastern, western, eastern, south-western and southern flat slopes. But at the northern section the density of trees was higher and they species were growing lands with 0.8 percent slope. In quantitive terms the studies showed that from the point of frequency density, basal area and volume per hectare: the lowe (1) forest contained 134 trees per hectare, in the studied regions, the number of tree varied from 35 to 134 trees per hectare. Maximum basal area varied from 8.807 m2/h in the lower forest of Gorgan to a minimum of 5.176 m2/h. Maximum DIAMETER was found to the 85cm in the Nowshahr (Sarcheshmeh) location. Maximum and minimum mean heights were 17.6m and 15.06m respectively. Analysis of variance showed differences between quantity parameters such as height, DIAMETER, Crown height, Crown DIAMETER and crotch height. In regeneration studies WILD CHERRY showed that in general the regeneration rate was low because of scatter ring of seeds by birds. The Soil of study SITE was fertilized on the bases of macro-elements and micro-element. Qualitive studies showed that Noshahr-Sarcheshmeh was the best SITE and Chenes he worst. Lowe 1 and Lowe2 were placed between the two limits.
