4. Project: «Northern coniferous forests – tools trough research for the sustainable use of forests in the Barents region» / EU Tacis : EU - Russia Neighbourhood Programme. Project coordinator – Kolari Research station, METLA, Finland. The main objectives: 1) to study age structure and partial spatial features of forest stands of a spruce stands in characteristic types forest types for area of their large - scale disintegration; 2) to study trends of gap - dynamics of old - age spruce forests in scale of a separate forest location; 3) formation of approaches in fores t using , directed on preservation of ecological stability of forests stands, especially at purpose of selective fellings.
5. Project: «Wood Bark and Peat as Raw Materials for Bioactive Compounds and Specialty Chemicals: from Innovations to Applications» («ForestSpeCs») . FP7. Project coordinator – University of Helsinki, Finland . The ultimate target of the project is to replace certain large - volume, oil based chemical materials with bio-renewable and innovative products based on wood-related residues and humic substances. The aim is to find feasible ways to produce high value added, bioactive compounds such as pharmaceuticals and biological plant protection products, as well as to develop new environmentally benign industrial chemicals and polymers. Furthermore, one of the main targets is to create economically attractive options for the total usage of processed wood and peat residues either as a whole, or after extraction of the main bioactive fractions, for example in soil remediation.

7. For territory of the Russian Federation (2008) trend of average annual temperature of air has made near by 0,4° С /10 years (source : technical resume of the estimated report on climate changes and their consequences), and rather possibly speaks increase in greenhouse gases and an aerosol in atmosphere. According to the Press centre Federal Service Rosleshoz for last 20-30 years the maximum increase of temperature in boreal a zone is marked just in the Arkhangelsk region, Karelia, Komi Republic and makes 3-4 С .

9. At present drying of spruce forest stands on the territory of the Arkhangelsk region is a large-scale problem. This problem is the most critical on the territory of forestry units located in the region between the Northern Dvina and Pinega rivers. Today it is not possible to name unambiguously the main reason for drying spruce forests in such large scales. Many possible reasons and versions of spruce stands degradation, their drying and damage. Drying of spruce forests has a negative impact on forest revenue to be collected from the territories exposed to such natural phenomenon. It is necessary to mention the historical fact that drying of spruce forests was regularly observed on the territory of the Arkhangelsk region before. However the current available data related to the problem is insufficient for the reliable prediction of further scenario of spruce stands drying and possibility of its recurrence within the time and space.

13. Thus, differences were found between characteristics of spruce decline: Speed. Progressive decrease. In general, at least several years elapse between the first onset of symptoms and death. More often it is 10 - 15 years or so. Mature cohort . The fact that declines affect a mature cohort in a population is an important feature that is often overlooked. Decline diseases affect trees that place the greatest demand on a site, the dominant and codominant trees. Symptoms. A key point is that these are nonspecific, very general symptoms. They are certainly not diagnostic. Dieback is usually more pronounced in hardwoods than in conifers, but branch dieback is not unusual in conifers. Cause . Decline diseases are caused by interaction of abiotic and biotic factors in three groups: Predisposing factors : Long-term. Often climate, site, age, genetic predisposition. May not lead to obvious problems, but predispose trees to: Inciting factors: Short-term. Things like defoliation, frost damage, drought. If not for the predisposing factors, trees would recover quickly, but predisposed tree go into decline and are vulnerable to: Contributing factors: Opportunistic fungi and insects like bark beetles. They finish off the tree, but normally wouldn't do so unless the tree was declining.
