As part of the cooperation between the BioReMo project partners, Lidar scanning of a forest site in the Gebharts Moor area was carried out for the League for Nature Conservation Lower Austria. The drone flight were carried out by our team on September 16, 2025.

How is climate change affecting Europe's natural forests? The Blue Cats contributes to a massive study spanning 84 years. Surprisingly most tree species show no consistent link between mortality and their position in the ecological niche—suggesting surprising resilience doi.org/10.1111/1365...

The main objective of the new BioReMo project is to research biodiversity in the border region of Lower Austria, South Moravia and South Bohemia. Among other things, the project will result in an exchange of information between NGOs, scientists and protected area managers in the border region.

Our colleague and friend Jakub Kašpar presented a poster at the TRACE 2025 conference in Umeå ( www.slu.se/en/calendar/... ) this week on the study "Factors behind the increasing variability of tree growth within and between sites in Central European forests". Oral presentation to follow today : - )

Our colleague and friend Jan Holík has published a new paper in the Fire Ecology journal. Topographic conditions dominate tree species recovery over 15 years post‑fire in a temperate Pinus sylvestris forest. Congratulations to Jan! doi.org/10.1186/s42408-025-00374-3

🌱 Soil Workshop in Brno 🌱

On April 9th–10th, a soil workshop was held in Brno, organized by the Landscape Research Institute as part of the WILDCARD project.

🌳 Thanks to everyone who participated and helped make it a valuable experience! 🌳

Extensive bark beetle disturbance has significantly changed the forests of the Bohemian Switzerland National Park, but it has not stopped the life. This also applies to the rare habitats of waterlogged spruce forests, which occur on the bottoms of ravines and valleys in sandstone rock towns.

Good day to all, we are ecologists, foresters and scientists studying how forests work without direct human impact. Passionate about spontaneous natural processes. We are from Landscape Research Institute, Czech Republic.
