Abstract

Abstract Close to nature silviculture is an alternative to a forest management system based on the clear cutting regeneration and cultivation of even-aged coniferous monocultures. The history of close to nature silviculture dates back to the second half of the 19th century, when the first attempts were made in Central Europe for more sophisticated silvicultural practices based on natural small-scale regeneration and management of mixed stands. These activities also affected the Czech lands, where the ideas of close to nature silviculture were successfully developed by the end of the 1960s. For the next twenty years, however, under the influence of central planning, forest management has been inclined towards large-scale clear cutting system. The renaissance of close to nature forest management took place only after 1989. At present, close to nature silviculture being established not only in Central Europe, but also more and more in the boreal part of Europe as well as in North America. Currently, there is a discussion about suitability of close-to-nature silviculture for adapting temperate forests to climate change.

近自然栽培的发展与现状

摘要：接近自然的造林是一种替代森林管理系统的方法，该系统基于砍伐、再生和培育同龄针叶林。接近自然的造林历史可以追溯到19世纪下半叶，当时中欧首次尝试在自然小规模再生和混合林管理的基础上进行更复杂的造林实践。这些活动也影响了捷克的土地，到20世纪60年代末，那里成功地发展了接近自然的造林思想。然而，在接下来的二十年里，在中央计划的影响下，森林管理一直倾向于大规模的砍伐制度。接近自然的森林管理的复兴是在1989年之后才发生的。目前，不仅在中欧，而且在欧洲北部和北美也越来越多地建立了接近自然的造林。目前，人们正在讨论接近自然的造林是否适合温带森林适应气候变化。

期刊介绍： Journal of Landscape Ecology is a fully reviewed scientific journal published by Czech National Chapter of the Association for Landscape Ecology (CZ-IALE). Our international editorial board has ambition to fill up a gap in the ecological field scope covered by the European scientific journals and mainly those among them which are produced in the Czech Republic. Subjects of papers are not limited teritorially, however, emphasis is given to the Middle-European landscape-ecological themes. The journal is not preferentially theoretical or applied, it is prepared to serve as a bridge between both levels of knowledge. The effort will be developed to increase gradually its quality level and to reach for acceptation by databases of scientific journals with IF. The first issue of JLE was published in 2008. Recently, three issues of JLE are published per year.
