Die Forschungseinheit untersucht die funktionale Bedeutung der Walddiversität für alle Aspekte von Waldökologie und -bewirtschaftung. Sie beurteilt die zukünftige Waldentwicklung in der Schweiz, und in anderen Gebieten der gemässigten Breiten und in Gebirgsregionen mittels dreier Forschungsschwerpunkte:

Sie untersucht die Diversität in Wäldern, deren Einfluss auf die Walddynamik bzw. Wachstums-, Absterbe- und Verjüngungsprozesse, und auf die Produkte und Leistungen von Waldökosystemen.
Sie untersucht die Auswirkungen von Stürmen, Lawinen, Waldbränden und Insekten auf die Walddynamik und erforscht die Bedeutung der Walddiversität bezüglich Resistenz gegen solche Störungen.
Sie untersucht den Einfluss forstlicher Eingriffe auf Waldstruktur und -entwicklung, um die nachhaltige Waldbewirtschaftung verbessern zu können.

Die Einheit entwickelt Empfehlungen, um forstwirtschaftliche Verfahren zu optimieren oder um Waldprodukte und -leistungen nachhaltig zu sichern oder zu verbessern betreffend Holzproduktion, forstliche Nebenprodukte (z.B. Pilze), Steuerung von Wasserhaushalt und -qualität, Schutz vor Naturgefahren und Schädlingen sowie Naturschutz und Erholungsfunktion.

Zur Infrastruktur gehört ein Netz von Forschungsflächen, sowie Labors für Insekten und Pilzuntersuchungen. Die Forschungseinheit arbeitet mit Partnern innerhalb der WSL, mit nationalen und internationalen Forschungsinstitutionen sowie mit Forstdiensten, Waldeigentümern und nationalen Behörden zusammen.

Der eingeschleppte Kastanienrindenkrebs gefährdet die Edelkastanienbestände auf der Alpennordseite. Um diese Bestände zu erhalten, wird im Rahmen dieses Projektes der Kastanienrindenkrebs auf der Alpennordseite mit hypovirulenten Pilzstämmen bekämpft

Standortsfaktor Boden

Das Projekt liefert auf Messwerten beruhende boden- und standortskundliche Informationen für den Schweizer Wald: (i) Verhalten von Baumarten hinsichtlich abiotischer Wachstumsfaktoren, (ii) quantitative Charakterisierung der ökologischen Nischen von Baumarten und (iii) ökologische Zeigerwerte für ausgewählte Waldpflanzen.

Trockenheit als limitierender Faktor für An- und Aufwuchs von Hauptbaumarten

Für die Anpassung unserer Wälder an ein wärmeres Klima sind verschiedene Strategien denkbar. In diesem Projekt wird die Plastizität verschiedener Provenienzen von Waldföhre und Fichte bezüglich Trockenheit in der Jugendphase untersucht.

Nadelbäume und Trockenheit

Sehr starke waldbauliche Eingriffe im Gebirgswald können kurzfristig ökonomisch vorteilhaft sein. Langfristig könnten sie aber die Waldverjüngung verzögern und den Holzuwachs vermindern. Ob solche nachteiligen Auswirkungen auftreten und wie gross sie allenfalls sind, wird mit retrospektiven ertragskundlichen und dendroökologischen Erhebungen in Gebirgswäldern abgeschätzt.

Tree regeneration after windthrow

Wind disturbance is the main natural driver of forest stand dynamics in Central and Northern Europe. On the basis of a large sample of windthrow gaps, this project aimed to quantify natural tree regeneration after wind disturbance, and to identify factors influencing tree regeneration dynamics.

Keimungsexperiment

Seit der zweiten Hälfte der 1990-er Jahre wird eine erhöhte Föhrenmortalität in den Wäldern des oberen Rhonetals festgestellt. Eine Doktorandin untersucht den Einfluss verschiedener klimatischer Aspekte und interspezifischer Konkurrenz auf die Verjüngung von Wald- und Schwarzföhre.

Mountland

Das Forschungsprojekt "Mountland" untersucht die möglichen Auswirkungen von potentiellen zukünftigen Klima- und Landnutzungsänderungen auf Ökosystemleistungen in Berggebieten. Das Projekt kombiniert in einem integrativen Vorgehen natur-, sozial- und politikwissenschaftlichen Methoden kombinieren, um Grundlagen für die Entwicklung von nachhaltigen Management- und Politikalternativen zu schaffen.

Querco

Querco, im Sinne von "quid Quercus, quo vadis?" Die Reaktionsmechanismen bei Trockenstress, Lufterwärmung und deren Kombination werden im Vergleich zur Kontrollbehandlung an 3 einheimischen Eichenarten (je 4 Provenienzen) im kontrollierten Experiment untersucht.

Mykorrhiza und Waldbrand

Im vorliegenden Projekt wird untersucht, inwiefern Waldbrand die Diversität von Mykorrhizapilzen verringert, und ob ein Zusammenhang zwischen Pilzdiversität und dem Wachstum von Baumkeimlingen besteht.

Das Lötschental

Das Lötschental im Wallis: ein idealer Untersuchungsraum, um den Einfluss der globalen Erwärmung auf das Baumwachstum zu studieren.

Macro- and micro morphological reactions to low soil water availability in the foliage of Scots pine from Wallis

In this project, the structural changes in foliage of Scots pine are used as sensitive bioindications of environmental constraints to study the reactions of dry pine forests in Wallis to low soil water availability and changes in land use.

Evoltree

A large network of research institutions collaborates within an EC-funded Network of Excellence to study the impacts of climate change on forest ecosystems from an evolutionary perspective.

Zusammensetzung von Schwemmholzablagerungen

Im August 2005 gab es in weiten Teilen des Schweizer Alpenraums schwere Überschwemmungen. Viele Ortschaften hatten neben den Wassermassen auch mit grossen Mengen Schwemmholz zu kämpfen. War das Schwemmholz frisch oder bereits verwittert? Welche Baumarten schwemmten die Flüsse an?

Irrigation Experiment Pfynwald

Drought-induced forest decline will gain in importance as the frequency and severity of drought events are expected to increase in the context of climate change. To understand how chronic drought affects tree growth, we study mature Scots pine in an irrigation experiment in an inner-Alpine dry valley since 2003.

Streunutzung – ein Experiment

Noch vor 150 Jahren waren die Wälder stark durch agrarische Nutzungsweisen geprägt. Dazu gehörte neben der Waldweide auch die Nutzung der Waldstreue. Durch experimentelle Streunutzung wollen Wissenschafter herausfinden, welche Bedeutung diese Nutzungsweise für die heutigen Naturschutzmassnahmen im Wald haben könnte.

Nadelchemie der Fichte

Mit dem Projekt "Monitoring Flankierende Massnahmen Umwelt" (MFM-U) untersucht die Schweiz die Umwelt-Auswirkungen des Landverkehrsabkommens mit der EU sowie die Umwelt-Auswirkungen der flankierenden Massnahmen. Im diesem Teilprojekt stehen die Auswirkungen auf den Wald im Vordergrund.

Diagnose von Wald- und Baumkrankheiten

Wichtige Informationen zur Beurteilung der Waldgesundheit stammen aus der Beratung, bei welcher mittels differenzialdiagnostischen Methoden die Ursachen von Baumkrankheiten analysiert werden. Die Kunden agieren als externe Mitarbeiter und erhalten als Gegenleistung die Diagnose inklusive einer Empfehlung für das geeignete weitere Vorgehen.

Treeline in Ural

Historical photographs document that the upper treeline of the Ural mountains has moved up 60 to 80 m during the last century. We assess how the expansion of forests into tundra affects soil organic matter dynamics in the pristine Southern, Northern and Polar Ural.

Soil solution in LWF plots

The chemistry of soil solution and the soil water availability for plants have been monitored since 1997 in seven forest plots in Switzerland. This project, linked to the Swiss Long-term Forest Ecosystem Research project (LWF), aims to assess the soil response to atmospheric pollution (acidifying substances and nitrogen) and to climate change.

Baumphysiologie und Klimawandel

Im Wallis wachsen Waldföhren und Flaumeichen zumindest zeitweise am Rande ihrer physiologischen Möglichkeiten. Wir untersuchen die Anpassungsfähigkeit aber auch die physiologischen Grenzen der dort vorkommenden Baumarten.

Nitrogen and ground vegetation

Ground vegetation is a powerful bio-indicator of the environment. The project aims at discriminating the various factors which may influence the dynamics of ground vegetation. Emphasis is being given to the role of nitrogen.

Crown condition assessment

It is important to have good information on the condition of the trees in the plots. Therefore scientists determine the relationships between crown condition and a number of environmental parameters.

Windwurffauna

Nach den grossen Stürmen Vivian (1990) und Lothar (1999) wurden Untersuchungen begonnen, um die langfristige Entwicklung der Insektenvielfalt auf geräumten und ungeräumten Sturmflächen zu verfolgen. Seither wurden während 7 (Vivian), bzw. 4 (Lothar) Jahren Erhebungen durchgeführt.

Schadenanalysen in Forstentomologie

Insekten prägen massgebend die Dynamik unserer Waldökosysteme. Informationen zur Verbreitung, Biologie und Epidemiologie der Waldinsekten dienen dazu, für Praxis und Behörden angepasste Massnahmen der Überwachung und Bekämpfung zu erarbeiten.

WATER - within the EVOLTREE network

A network of four research institutions collaborates within an EC-funded Network of Excellence to determine and understand the influence of genetic diversity of trees and site water regime on neutral and functional diversities of the associated mycorrhizal community.
