My tasks:
to study root respiration of Larix gmelinii trees depending on tree growth and root diameter;
to determine temperature-respiration relationships of mosses, lichens, dwarf shrubs, litter and soil in larch associations;
to study soil and vegetation cover respiration after ground fires and in untouched larch stands;
to evaluate CO2–emission from vegetation cover and soil in various larch stands;
to determine the contribution of mosses, lichens and dwarf shrubs in total CO2 flux from vegetation cover surface; to study CO2 flux from soil in larch stands;
to study CO2–emission by shrubs in burned and unburned larch associations.
