An attempt was made to evaluate the response of the ecosystem to changes of climate in ten pine forest stands. It was assumed that the ecosystem response to environmental change can be evaluated by examining differences in ecosystem structures and would be measured trough the change in the rates of ecosystem processes. During four years of study (1997-00) the following studies were conducted on each site: the origin and structure as well as physical and chemical features of soils, tree stand age, height, basal area, biomass and carbon content, vertical and horizontal structure of ground vegetation, its diversity, biomass and carbon content, litter fall, its decomposition and accumulation, radial growth of trees
