ASPECTS CONCERNING THE SPREADING OF Q UERCUS RUBRA IN TIMISOARA FOREST DISTRICT
Abstract
Quercus rubra L. (Q. borealis Michx.) - Red oak, American red oak, was introduced in Europe at the end of the VII century especially in western and central Europe. In our country has been frequently used like a decorative species in parks or for alley, but also as a forest tree, in plantations in the west of the country, Mihăieşti, Lipova (Neudorf Park), and Cristian Râşnov - Brasov, Sabed -Mures (especially Q. borealis var. Maxima), etc. In the west part of the country the specie was extended to about 1 650 metres in Forest Săcuieni (Bihor) District. In Timisoara Forest District, red oak is widespread in 16 compartments with a total area of 68.8 hectares and an area of 24.09 actually occupied by red oak. The actually areas occupied by red oak was determined by multiplying the compartment areas, the percentage of specie participation in stand composition and crown density of the stand.
