Abstract
The Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber L.) populations are considered to have reached densities causing substantial damage to forestry, e.g., in the south eastern Baltic Sea countries. The project Water Management in Baltic Forests WAMBAF of the Interreg Baltic Sea Region started in March 2016 and lasted for three years. WAMBAF committed to water management in Baltic forests and aimed to reduce nutrient and mercury export from forestry to streams, other water bodies towards the Baltic Sea. Three main topics like riparian forests, drainage system and beaver population / dam management that strongly related to mentioned issues. Protection of the Baltic Sea catchment is based on the protection of inland waters because the Sea gains the main inflow of nutrients and toxic compounds from inland watersThe Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber L.) populations are considered to have reached densities causing substantial damage to forestry, e.g., in the south eastern Baltic Sea countries. The project Water Management in Baltic Forests WAMBAF of the Interreg Baltic Sea Region started in March 2016 and lasted for three years. WAMBAF committed to water management in Baltic forests and aimed to reduce nutrient and mercury export from forestry to streams, other water bodies towards the Baltic Sea. Three main topics like riparian forests, drainage system and beaver population / dam management that strongly related to mentioned issues. Protection of the Baltic Sea catchment is based on the protection of inland waters because the Sea gains the main inflow of nutrients and toxic compounds from inland waters
期刊介绍:
The journal welcomes the original articles as well as short reports, review papers on forestry and forest science throughout the Baltic Sea region and elsewhere in the area of boreal and temperate forests. The Baltic Sea region is rather unique through its intrinsic environment and distinguished geographical and social conditions. A temperate climate, transitional and continental, has influenced formation of the mixed coniferous and deciduous stands of high productivity and biological diversity. The forest science has been affected by the ideas from both the East and West.
In 1995, Forest Research Institutes and Universities from Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania
joined their efforts to publish BALTIC FORESTRY.
