Klosterwald - Austria

This site is part of the BFW project "Klimaforschungswald". The aim of this research project is to evaluate which tree species will fullfil the important tasks and functions of the forest ecosystem in the future. Furthermore, temperature and precipitation fluctuations in particular are to be documented in order to be able to map a possible trend and the influence of the growing vegetation. A total of 13 different deciduous tree species were planted in the “Klosterwald” area. In the middle of the area, a classic oak-hornbeam row afforestation was planted.
