• Niche model calibration

    5 members

    The aim of this group is to reach a consensus about the use of level-1 and level-2 data for the calibration of ecological niche models; and to make appointments on the use of the data and the preparation of a scientific paper

  • Sentinel-2 imagery meets Level I survey data

    5 members

    Indicators of forest health such as defoliation can be observed and monitored in the field like it is done at Level I monitoring plots and via vegetation indices and their deviation from normality. The aim is to intersect crown condition data with Sentinel-2 vegetation indices to allow for a spatio…

  • Comparison ICP Forests - EMEP deposition

    12 members

    This group discusses three studies that aim on comparing ICP Forests and EMEP deposition estimates with slightly different purposes. Since they all aim at comparisons between ICP Forests and EMEP we joined them in the same group. The objectives of the three studies are: Comparison of measured ICP …

  • Forest productivity, carbon sequestration, climate change

    5 members

    The German National Forest Inventory (NFI) is an important instrument for forest policy of the federal and state governments. It is also increasingly used for applied research on tree species distribution and site productivity. However, data on soil and climate at the NFI sites are covered only uns…

    Predicting Ozone Fluxes, Impacts, and Critical Levels on European Forests Tropospheric ozone (O3) is considered to be more damaging to vegetation than any other air pollutant. Public concerns, evidence from research, and increasing scientific knowledge are all driving widespread discussions on ozon…

  • Ozone exposures

    23 members

    The group focuses on the evaluation of tropospheric ozone exposures from passive samplers and real-time monitors (see ICP Forests Manual part XV). We aim at investigating temporal and spatial trends of ozone concentrations, based on Level II data from the last 10 years. The analyses are embedded in…

  • Ozone visible symptoms

    21 members

    The group focuses on the evaluation of tropospheric ozone effects in terms of ozone visible symptoms (see ICP Forests Manual Part VIII). We investigating temporal and spatial trends of injury occurrence in relation to ambient ozone concentrations. The analyses of Level II data from the last 16 year…
