Neophyte mapping Gtatterboden settlement area
Description
In 2007, Gesäuse National Park initiated a management to combat Invasive Neophytes. Initially, only individual areas were processed. Since 2010, the annual actions have been extended to the entire protected area. The focus is on the freeing of sensitive habitats such as avalanche troughs, floodplains, shore areas, etc. The following three species are actively combated: Glandular herb (Impatiens glandulifera), Canadian and giant gold rod (Solidago canadensis, S. gigantea) and Japanese shrub (Fallopia japonica).
So far, this has been well done in many parts. Problems arise in the edges of the national park, such as roads, railway bodies and settlement areas. For this reason, subsequent mapping has been carried out. It is intended to identify possible danger zones for the introduction of neophytes into the protected area.
Furthermore, the present mapping can serve as a basis for a serious fight by the municipality of Gstatterboden/Admont, the Landesforste Styria and volunteers. The proposed methods of processing the individual neophyte deposits and an assessment of the dominance of stocks are listed.
