Лесной покров Московской области сильно изменен в связи с длительной историей хозяйственного освоения и активным созданием лесных культур. В результате современный состав и пространственная дифференциация типов лесных сообществ не полностью зависят от природных условий, а во многом именно от деятельности человека. Встает вопрос: сохранилось ли влия...
