Die Waldvegetation in den Nationalparks Thayatal und Podyji: Erfassung, Kartierung und ausgewählte Analysen

The presented article summarizes the outcomes of vegetation-ecological research in the forested part of
the two neighbouring Nationalparks Podyjí (Czech Republic) and Thayatal (Austria). As a central result, a map of
forest types, based on field mapping combined with remote sensing assisted modelling, is presented. In addition, the
results of near-nature forest management interventions are highlighted and contrasted with a detailed investigation of
a natural disturbance. In doing so, a contribution to a better understanding of vegetation dynamics in protected natural
forests of Central Europe is provided.
