Apstrakt:

Šume u Srbiji zauzimaju gotovo trećinu njene teritorije (29,1%). Šume su presudan faktor za
očuvanje više od 80% ukupnog biodiverziteta u Srbiji i predstavljaju značajan faktor za ublažavanje
negativnih posledica klimatskih promena.
Najveće ekološke i ekonomske katastrofe koje mogu da zadese šumske ekosisteme izazivaju šumski
požari. Oni predstavljaju veliki i aktuelan društveni, privredni i ekološki problem.
Šumski požari uništavju ekosisteme, biodiverzitet i ostavljaju nesagledive negativne posledice na životnu
sredinu čitavih područja. Kao destruktivna pojava izazivaju (najdestruktivniji izazivači) neprocenjivo
veliku ekološku i ekonomsku štetu.
Učestalost požara i površina koju oni zauzimaju raste iz godine u godinu. Imajući u vidu klimatske promene
i rast prosečnih godišnjih temperatura vazduha, tematika šumskih požara sve više dobija na značaju.
Cilj rada je da na primeru šumskog požara na Staroj planini, koji se dogodio u jesen 2019 godine, da
metodiku za utvrđivanje direktnih šteta i računanje gubitaka na umanjenoj vrednosti drvne zapremine.
Drugi cilj je da se prezentuju najznačajniji elementi i podaci o nivou i karakteru šteta na šumama, sa
posebnim naznakama o nivou šteta na opožarenim površinama koje su u državnom vlasništvu. Rad će
dati pregled obima šteta kroz površinu, drvnu zapreminu i na toj osnovi utvrditi direktne štete opožarene
drvne zapremine i okvirnu projekciju nastalih šteta na površinama kojima gazduje JP „Srbijašume“. U
tim okvirima prikazaće se procena obima ekoloških šteta u državnim šumama na opožarenom području.

Abstract:

Forests in Serbia occupy almost a third of its territory (29.1%). Forests are a crucial factor
in preserving more than 80% of the total biodiversity in Serbia and are a significant factor in mitigating
the negative effects of climate change.
The biggest ecological and economic catastrophes that can hit forest ecosystems are caused by forest
fires. They represent a major and current social, economic and environmental problem.
Forest fires destroy ecosystems, biodiversity and leave unforeseeable negative consequences on the
environment of entire areas. As a destructive phenomenon, they cause (the most destructive causes)
inestimable great ecological and economic damage.

The frequency of fires and the area they occupy is growing from year to year. Having in mind climate
change and the growth of average annual air temperatures, the topic of forest fires is gaining in importance.
The aim of the paper is to use the example of the forest fire on Stara Planina, which occurred in the fall
of 2019, to provide a methodology for determining direct damage and calculating losses on the reduced
value of wood volume. The second goal is to present the most important elements and data on the level
and character of damage to forests, with special indications on the level of damage to the burned areas
that are state-owned. The paper will give an overview of the extent of damage through the area, wood
volume and on that basis determine the direct damage to the burned wood volume and the approximate
projection of the damage on the areas managed by JP “Srbijasume”. Within this framework, an assessment
of the extent of environmental damage in state forests in the burned area will be presented.

Keywords:

Forest fire, Stara planina, Environmental damage, JP “Srbijašume”.
