Abstract
Methods of identification of High Value Conservation Forests (HVCF) were proposed in correspondence with the Russian national standard accredited by the Forest Stewardship Council (FCS). The landscape and typological approach was assumed as the basis for HVCF identification. In fact, conception of HVCF is a modified interpretation of protective forest organization. The methods we described can be applied in other Siberian regions.
