ABSTRACT: Beskids are the part of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains. The current work is devoted to quantitative estimation of the flow regulating role of Beskid forests and its’ change under anthropogenic load on the basis of analysis of forest-hydrological indices and experimental investigation. The following have been accomplished: (a) The method of the past forest exploitation on the Beskid catchments has been defined; (b) The forestry enterprises structural units positioning with regard to the boundaries of catchments of various orders have been analyzed; (c) The forest inventory characteristics on these river catchments have been studied; (d) The precipitation flow regulation depending on forest land percentage and area of the catchments and forest flow regulation influence on flood and snow melt flood discharge formation have been evaluated; (e) The final harvesting influence on the water-physical properties of soils and the flow redistribution has been determined; and (f) The functional dependence of the hydrological indices versus catchments’ characteristics with employment of mathematical modeling methods has been established. The results of estimation of the forest influence on flood and snow-melt flood discharges should be taken into account in design of the flood protection facilities and flow regulating reservoirs on the territory of Beskids.
