Phytomass (live biomass) and Net Primary Production (NPP) belong to the
most important indicators of biological productivity of forest
ecosystems. This section contains results of the assessment of
phytomass and NPP of Russian forests using methods and models developed
by the IIASA Forestry Program and based on data of the Russian
State Forest Account for 2003.
The data are presented by administrative
units (subjects of the Russian Federation) and dominant species
distributed by fractions and age groups of stands. The data regarding
live biomass and NPP for Russian forest ecosystems at this level
of detail are reported here for the first time.
