More than 60 researchers performed a comprehensive ecosystem research at the site within IBP and MaB programmes in 1967-1975. This period finished by production of syntheses in micro-meteorology and micro-climate, soils, soil microbiology, ecophysiological processes of plants (photosynthesis, water relations, mineral nutrition), primary productivity, nutrient cycles, water circulation, and secondary productivity. The ecosphisiological studies continued in 1975-1980, later the research was focused to plant population biology and alien plants invasions. The ecosystem research was re-established in 2007. The inventory of shrub and trees, herb vegetation, selected animal groups allowed identification of changes during 40 years caused probably by the climate changes and anthropogenic disturbances. The differences in decomposition of selected native and invasive plant species were assessed. The biomonitoring of the air pollution was done using mosses as indicator organisms. Now the research is focused to dynamics of forest ecosystem (vegetation, selected invertebrate groups, small mammals) and impact of forestry management (clear-cuts) to structure and dynamics of forest ecosystem. The multisite trampling experiment (ALTER-Net) and tea decomposition experiment (ILTER) were\/are performed at the site.","citation":null,"relatedIdentifiers":null,"status":{"label":"Operational","uri":"http:\/\/vocabs.lter-europe.net\/elter_cl\/10772"},"yearEstablished":1967,"yearClosed":null,"relatedSites":null,"siteName":"Bab","shortName":"Bab","siteType":"Stationary land-based site","protectionLevel":[{"label":"Category Ia \u2013 Strict Nature Reserve","uri":"http:\/\/dd.eionet.europa.eu\/vocabularyconcept\/cdda\/IucnCategoryValue\/Ia"}],"landUse":null,"images":[{"url":"https:\/\/deims.org\/sites\/default\/files\/photos\/B%25C3%25A1b1.jpg","alt":"B\u00e1b forest"},{"url":"https:\/\/deims.org\/sites\/default\/files\/photos\/Bab%2520herb%2520layer.jpg","alt":"Herb layer in forest"},{"url":"https:\/\/deims.org\/sites\/default\/files\/photos\/TEA%2520BAGS%2520INSTALLATION.JPG","alt":"Tea bags installation - B\u00e1b"},{"url":"https:\/\/deims.org\/sites\/default\/files\/photos\/Bab%2520Soil%2520probe.JPG","alt":"Soil probe"},{"url":"https:\/\/deims.org\/sites\/default\/files\/photos\/B%25C3%25A1b2.jpg","alt":"Forest"},{"url":"https:\/\/deims.org\/sites\/default\/files\/photos\/Clear-cut%2520herb%2520layer.jpg","alt":"Herb layer on forest glade"}]},"environmentalCharacteristics":{"airTemperature":{"yearlyAverage":10.01,"monthlyAverage":null,"unit":"\u00b0C","referencePeriod":null},"precipitation":{"yearlyAverage":540.9,"monthlyAverage":null,"unit":"mm","referencePeriod":null},"biogeographicalRegion":"pannonian","biome":"deciduous_forest","ecosystemType":[{"label":"Deciduous Forest","uri":null},{"label":"Forest","uri":null}],"eunisHabitat":[{"label":"Broadleaved deciduous woodland (G1)","uri":null},{"label":"Thermophilous deciduous woodland (G1.7)","uri":null},{"label":"Woodland, forest and other wooded land (G)","uri":null}],"landforms":null,"geoBonBiome":["Terrestrial"],"geology":"Calcareous loess","hydrology":null,"soils":"The parent is calcareous loess, the formed soil are Albi-Halic Luvisols wih 2,6-3,3% organic mater content and C\/N ratio of 13,9 in the 0-10cm horizon (Szombathov\u00e1 and Zaujec, 2001, Gonet et al., 2008).","vegetation":"The geobiocoenosis belongs to the Fageto-Quercetum group of forest type (Kub\u00ed?ek and Brechtl, 1970), with prevailing oaks- Quercus robur, Q. petraea, Q.cerris with admixtute of Carpinus betulus and Acer campestre in the tree layer of phytocoenosis.
