Raw pollen data from kasten core CON01-603-5 part1 (counts)

Sediment slices of 0.5 cm thickness were obtained from gravity core segments and of 1 cm thickness from the Vydrino piston core. Volumetric subsamples of 5 cm3 (10 cm3 in case of the lowermost samples from Continent core) were prepared according to standard procedures, including 7-μm ultrasonic fine-sieving (Cwynar et al., 1979, Fægri et al., 1989 K. Fægri, P.E. Kaland and K. Krzywinski, Textbook of Pollen Analysis (4th edition), John Wiley & Sons, Chichester (1989) 328 pp..Fægri et al., 1989 and PALE Steering Committee, 1994). Two tablets of Lycopodium marker spores were added to each sample for calculating total pollen and spore concentrations (Stockmarr, 1971). Water-free glycerol was used for storage and preparation of microscopic slides. The palynological samples were counted at magnifications of 400–600×, applying 1000× for the identification of difficult pollen types, e.g., including Saxifragaceae, Crassulaceae, and Rosaceae.

Intensives Waldmonitoring ( IWM , Level II )

Das ICP-Forests-Programm agiert im Rahmen des UNECE-Übereinkommens über weiträumige grenzüberschreitende Luftverunreinigungen (Genfer Luftreinhaltekonvention, CLRTAP). Das Level-II-Monitoring ergänzt seit 1995 das Level-I-Monitoring. Hier werden Daten über Baumwachstum, Bodenvegetation, Bodenlösung, Bodenfestphase, nasse Deposition, Luftqualität, meteorologische Parameter, Phänologie, Streufall, Nadel- / Blattanalysen und sichtbare Ozonschäden erhoben, die umfänglich und hinsichtlich ihrer zeitlichen Auflösung weit über den Erhebungsrahmen des extensiven Waldmonitorings (Level I) hinausgehen. Die Daten werden in Deutschland auf ca. 50 - 90 Plots (Anzahl variiert je nach Parameter) erhoben. Verteilung Probenahmestandorte: Verteilung systematisch, so dass die Hauptwaldtypen Europas repräsentiert sind (kein Raster) Probenahmemethode: Die Probenahme für chemische Analysen erfolgt grundsätzlich nach Tiefenstufen. Satellitenbeprobung im Radius von 25 m mit einem inneren intensiver zu beprobenden Radius von 3 m. Für alle anderen Erhebungen ausführliche Angaben im ICP-Forests-Manual: http://www.icp-forests.org/Manual.htm Entnahmetiefen: 0 bis 10 cm 20 bis 40 cm 40 bis 80 cm Untersuchungsmethode: Analysemethoden sind einheitlich festgelegt im ICP-Forests-Manual (s.o.). Untersuchungshäufigkeit: - bodenchemische Parameter alle 10 Jahre - Boden-Lösung fortlaufend - Blattnährstoffgehalte alle 2 Jahre - Baumdurchmesser und -höhen alle 5 Jahre - Boden-Vegetation mindestens alle 5 Jahre - atmosphärische Deposition fortlaufend - Bedingungen der Umgebungsluft fortlaufend - meteorologische Parameter fortlaufend - Phänologie mehrmals pro Jahr - Streufall fortlaufend - sichtbare Ozonschäden einmal pro Jahr - Kronenzustand jährlich Arbeitsgruppen / Gremien: - Expert Panel on soil and soils solution - Forest Soil Coordination Centre - Expert Panel on foliage and litterfall - Forest Foliar Coordinating Centre - Expert Panel on forest growth - Expert Panel on deposition - Working Group on ambient air quality - Expert Panel on crown condition - Ad hoc group on assessment of biotic damage causes - Expert panel on meteorology and phenology - Expert panel on biodiversity and ground vegetation - Quality Assurance Committee - Project Coordinating Group (PCG) - Scientific Advisory Group (SAG)

Data concerning preparation of pollen concentrates and graphite targets and results of dating.

Laboratory processing of concentrates was aimed at the removal of non-sporomorph organic matter by means of chemical treatment, micro-sieving and heavy liquid seperation. The optained concentrates were checked under the microscope and sample purity was estimated on the basis of particle counts. The results of AMS 14C dating show differences in the sedimentation rate among three sites of Lake Baikal.

Limiting Factors of Saproxylic Insects: Habitat Relationships of an Endangered Ecological Group

Dead and decaying wood is one major component of European forests that has been nearly eradicated by silvicultural practices, although it provides habitat for a wide variety of species. Among these, saproxylic insects form the largest group. They do not only suffer from the destruction of their habitat, but also from the effects of isolation. In our project, we quantify the effects of the amount, quality, and spatial configuration of dead wood on species richness, diversity, and abundance of saproxylic Diptera and Coleoptera using eclectors and trunk window-traps. Our study is carried out in the Sihlwald (Kt. Zuerich, Switzerland), a forest in transition from amanged to natural state, which has recently become a reserve. The results are interpreted on the basis of habitat relationship models. These approaches have strong predictive power on forest management and conservation planning. Leading Questions: 1. Is species-specific abundance of saproxylic insects a function of the amount of dead wood of a certain quality? 2. Is there a relationship between the connectedness of dead wood and the abundance of saproxylic insects? 3. Does the fauna associated with branches of beech (Fagus sylvatica) contribute significantly to the overall species richness and diversity ?
