In the Forest Experimental Station of the Russian State Agrarian University–Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy, since 1862, experiments have been carried out to study the methods of planting, the geographical origin of seeds, methods of thinning for forest growth. Over 150 years, significant changes have occurred in the climatic conditions of the Forest Experimental Station. There have been changes in the species composition of the forested area of the Forest Experimental Station. At the time of the first forest inventory in 1862, there were 5.7 units for pine, 1.6 units for birch and 1.4 units for oak. In the subsequent dynamics of the species composition of forest stands, there is a decrease in the share of pine to 3.9 units and an increase in the share of birch (1.6 units), oak (2.3 units) and larch (1.8 units) by 2009.
