Summary:
|
|
Many mountain forests effectively protect people and assets against natural hazards. The protective effect is thereby mainly provided by the presence of adult trees in a forest stand. Stand structures, however, are depending on forest dynamics and... ->read more

|
Young trees in protective forest areas: how many are needed?
Protective forests are of essential importance to the settlements and the infrastructure of the Alps. In order to guarantee the longterm effectivity of these forests as a pro... ->read more
