Repetition of the state of vegetation and natural rejuvenation on the clearing corridors of the Hüpflinger Alm (National Park Gesäuse)

Description

Spruce forests in the middle layers are increasingly confronted with the infestation of bark beetles with increasing annual average temperatures in combination with expected dry phases. The research area is intended to help to understand the regeneration capacity of anthropogenic spruce forests and in context with other factors such as wild pressure and to set climatic factors. Parameters such as deadwood, rejuvenation and bite were investigated in more detail. Our forest ecosystems are characterised by a wide variety of natural and anthropogenic influences. On the anthropogenic transformation areas, it was assessed how various management measures affected the development of vegetation and the forest structure, in order to be able to subsequently derive management recommendations. The development of these transformation areas will be assessed with regard to vegetation composition, natural regeneration and forest structure.
