National Parks in Poland

Procedures for conducting research in the national parks:

Proposal of the project presented on the form to the Directorate of the

national park

• group to be investigated

• state of knowledge and necessity of research

• methodology (non-invasive collection of data is preferable)

• proposed plots, etc.

Proposal is presented to Scientific Advisory Board of the Park, discussed

and voted

After acceptance, the Director of the Park is presenting special permits

Head of the project have to present annual reports

Any paper resulting from the research must be offered to the Park

authorities

The voucher specimens must be deposited in the collection of the Park

In some areas there are more strict rules

Bieszczady Mountains: border of Poland, Slovakia and Ukraine

Bieszczady Mountains i.e. the area between the U ocka Pass in the east, the

upkowska Pass in the west, Polish state border with Slovakia and Ukraine in the

south, and the valley of San River in the north

• Geographic position: SE Poland, NE Slovakia, W Ukraine; 49°-49°50’ N, 22°-23°E

• Area: about 2000 km2

• Geology - typical for the majority of the Carpathian Range, with sandstone, and

shale being the dominating base rocks.

• Physiographic division: 52 Eastern Carpathians province; 522 Eastern Beskidy

macroregion; 522.1 Forest Beskidy; 522.12 Western Bieszczady mezoregion

• Geobotanic division: Holarctic region; Euro-Siberian area; Mid European Montane

province; Carpathian subprovince; Eastern Carpathians division; Forest Carpathians

circle, Bieszczady subcircle

Elevations vary between about 500 m a.s.l. in main valleys and 1346 m a.s.l. at

the highest peak - Tarnica.

Weather - strongly influenced by a continental climate of Ukraine and western

Russia. An average air temperature is +5.1°C, (annual range from -40 to +35),

and annual precipitation 1200 - 1300 mm. Snow cover lasts here from 110 to

160 days.

Bieszczady National Park: erected 1973; UNESCO Biosphere Reserve

Area (total): 292,02 km²

forests 247,24 km²

managed reas 21,12 km²

water 0,76 km²

Protection: strictly protected: 184,25 km²

partly protected: 107,77 km²

Since 1992 part of International Reserve

of Biosphere „Eastern Carpathians”

together with Polish Cisniansko-Wetlinski

Landscape Park and The Dolina Sanu

Landscape Park, Slovak Poloniny National

Park, Ukrainian Uzhansky National Park

and Dolina Sanu Landscape Park

Since 2005 member of PAN-Parks net

Forested in over 60% with beech-fir natural forest. Forest consists in 60 - 75%

of beech Fagus silvatica and fir Abies alba, supplemented with alder, spruce, sycamore,

pine, larch, aspen, and willows. Large part of former agricultural land belonging to

bankrupt state farms, remains abandoned under various stages of secondary succession,

in some cases up to 50 years old.

• More than 60 various non-forest plant associations and communities.

• The most widely occurring forest association in the Bieszczady National Park is the

Carpathian beech wood Dentario glandulosae-Fagetum. Another common type of beech

forest - acidophilous beech woods Luzulo nemorosae-Fagetum

Vertical vegetation zones

— submountain (colline) zone up to ca 500 m a.s.l.,

— lower montane zone up to ca 1150 m a.s.l.,

— “polonina” zone i.e. zone of subalpine and alpine communities, occurring above the

upper forest line up to the highest summits

Flora:

• Vascular plants: about 700 species

• Moss: 200 species

• Lichens: 300 species

Fauna:

284 vertebrate species includes all large European predators (wolf, brown bear,

lynx, wildcat), and almost all herbivorous species: European bison, red and roe

deer, moose, and wild boar

invertebrates (very patchy knowledge, number of species not known, estimated

over 7000 species

— 112 species occurring in Poland exclusively within the limits of the Polish part

of the International Reserve of Biosphere “Eastern Carpathians”,

— 115 species new to Poland, known from other countries,

— 48 East-Carpathian endemics,

— 14 East-South-Carpathian endemics,

— 3 West-Carpathians sub-endemics,

— 21 species new to science,

— 19 species new to science with loci typici within the area,

— 2 species known only as locus typicus in the Bieszczady Mountains.

The highest and least affected by an antropogenic influence part of Bieszczady

(over 27 thousand hectares) has been included in 1973 into the Bieszczadzki

National Park. In 1992 a Biosphere Reserve „Eastern Carpathians”, encompassing

the national park and two landscape parks, has been established over the area of

108 thousand hectares. With adjoining Slovak and Ukrainian protected areas it

forms an International Biosphere Reserve covering over 160 thousand hectares. The

density of human population ranges between 5 - 10 people per sq. km, and is

among the lowest in the country.

Long Term Ecological Research in the Bieszczady Mountains

Ecological projects have started in Bieszczady in the late fifties with a study on the

population of small mammals

Recent project: Application of long-term data in studies on populations of large

mammals and the evaluation of anthropogenic effects at Bieszczady Mountains,

Poland by dr hab. Kajetan Perzanowski (MIIZ)

Types and lenghts of data sets:

• history of land-use: back to 1850

• population data on rodents: since the mid-fifties

• invertebrate studies: since the sixties

• floristic studies: since the sixties

• forest structure and composition: since the mid-sixties

• meterology: since 1960

• population data on large mammals: since 1980
