Forest vegetation communities of Peterhof Road parks

More about the book

Focusing on the ecological significance of the gardens and parks along Peterhof Road, this study emphasizes their role as a vital component of St. Petersburg's cultural heritage. It explores the long-term development of plant communities influenced by both natural and human factors, noting the dynamic changes that have altered their original appearance. The research highlights the transformation due to the introduction of broad-leaved species and soil from different forest zones, resulting in a unique forest vegetation distinct from the region's typical flora.
