Sustainable Management of Forest Soils in the Calcareous Alps -SicAlp
Abstract
Aim of the project is the transboundary development of a knowledge base for safeguarding the functions and services of mountain forest sites in the Bavarian and Austrian Calcareous Alps. The functions and services will be quantified for intact forest ecosystems. Ecological amplitudes regarding site conditions and drought stress tolerances of main tree species will be quantified and estimates for changing climatic conditions will be predicted. Methods for reforestation of disturbed sites will be developed. Success of regeneration and feedback upon humus dynamics, nutrition and seepage water quality will be investigated. The results serve as a basis for sustainable management concepts.
