چکیده

 از آنجایی‌که در جنگل‌های شاخه‌زاد پتانسیل رویشی کنده بین جست‌های مختلف در یک جست‌گروه تقسیم می‌شود، این پژوهش به‌منظور تعیین پاسخ رویشی جست‌گروه‌های بلوط ایرانی (Quercus brantii Lindl.) به تنک کردن و انتخاب بهترین شدت تنک کردن با توجه به اثر آن بر رویش جست‌گروه‌ها انجام شد. این پژوهش در قالب طرح آماری کامل تصادفی با چهار تیمار و سه تکرار در جنگل داربادام استان کرمانشاه اجرا شد. تیمارهای مورد استفاده شامل تنک کردن سبک، متوسط و سنگین بود که به‌ترتیب 10، 20 و 30 درصد از سطح مقطع در ارتفاع 0/5 متری جست‌گروه‌ها تنک شدند و تیمار چهارم بدون دخالت به‌عنوان شاهد درنظر گرفته شد. پس از یک دوره پنج‌ساله، با محاسبه رویش قطری، ارتفاعی و سطح تاج جست‌‌گروه‌های باقیمانده در هر تیمار، تأثیر تنک کردن بر رویش آنها بررسی شد. نتایج نشان داد که تنک کردن سنگین، تأثیر معنی‌داری بر افزایش رویش متغیرهای سطح تاج و سطح مقطع جست‌گروه‌ها داشته است، اما در مورد متغیرهای قطر جست‌گروه و ارتفاع جست‌گروه، تفاوت معنی‌داری مشاهده نشد. براساس نتایج، بهترین شدت تنک کردن مربوط به تنک کردن سنگین با حذف 30 درصد از سطح مقطع جست‌های یک جست‌گروه بود که می‌تواند در کارهای اجرایی درنظر گرفته شود.

چکیده [English]

The vegetative potential of stump is divided among various sprouts in coppice stands. The main objectives of this research were to 1) identify the growth respond of Brant`s oak (Quercus brantii Lindl.) sprout clumps to thinning and 2) to choose the best intensity of thinning. This study was done based on completely randomized design with four treatments and three replications in Kermanshah province (Darbadam forests).We assessed the effect of different thinning intensities on growth of oaks in Darbadam region, Kermanshah, during a 5-year period. Four treatments including heavy (decreasing 30 percent of basal area), medium (decreasing 20 percent of basal area) and light (decreasing 10 percent of basal area) thinning, each with 3 replications was used. One treatment was considered as control with no intervention. Prior to thinning quantitative characteristics of sample trees were measured. In the last year of research, the measurements were repeated to calculate the growth values. Based on results, heavy thinning had considerably positive impact on growth of sprout-clumps crown area and basal area of sprouts. However, no significant difference was observed between treatments regarding to height of sprout-clumps and diameter of sprouts. We concluded that the heavy thinning with removing 30% of basal area was the most influential on sprout clumps growth that is applicable in thinning projects in Zagros oak coppice stands.
