Abstract
The paper presents an evaluation of health condition of selected oak stands in the Włoszakowice Forest Division based on a synthetic tree damage index. Field work was conducted in 2007-2008. In order to perform this task seven experimental sites were established, with 25 trees from Kraft’s age classes I-III evaluated in each. It was found that the overall health condition of most stands deteriorated in 2008 in comparison to 2007.
