The project package "Functional ecology and sustainable management of the Munessa forest, Ethiopia" aims at generating and analysing variables that govern the functioning of a mountain forest ecosystem in Ethiopia. The findings are expected to lay strong scientific bases for the sustainable management of Ethiopian forests. The studies are based at experimental sites located close to a field station constructed with the financial supports of DFG and DFG/BMZ in the previous project phase. In the coming project phase, the silvicultural experiments are foreseen to serve as a nucleus for the different scientific disciplines. The enlargement of the project in the upcoming phase needs a more robust coordination of the administrative and scientific works and Project Package Munessa Forest, Ethiopia - Central Project and Coordinating Scientist collaboration among the participating scientists, which requires the employment of a project coordinating scientist. His tasks are: 1) to coordinate the fieldwork, 2) to administer the project car and the field station, 3) to manage plots established for scientific work, 4) to update Ethiopian foresters on the findings of the project by organising training seminars, 5) to liaison the German researchers with their Ethiopian partners, 6) to strengthen inter and intra-networking (e.g. with regular newsletter and updating the project website), and 7) to lead the preparation of a manual for the sustainable management of the Munessa forest. This proposal also includes activities and costs that are indispensable for running the project package successfully. Such activities include administration of the field station, running of the project car as well as the effective management of the silvicultural experimental plots, which are central for the whole package.

“埃塞俄比亚Munessa森林的功能生态学和可持续管理”项目包旨在产生和分析制约埃塞俄比亚山区森林生态系统功能的变量。预计这些研究结果将为埃塞俄比亚森林的可持续管理奠定坚实的科学基础。这些研究是基于位于一个野外站附近的实验场地，该野外站是在前一个项目阶段由DFG和DFG/BMZ提供财政支持建造的。在下一个项目阶段，预期造林实验将成为不同科学学科的核心。下一阶段项目的扩大需要更有力地协调行政和科学工作以及埃塞俄比亚Munessa森林项目包-中央项目和参与科学家之间的协调科学家合作，这需要雇用一名项目协调科学家。他的任务是：1）协调实地工作，2）管理项目车和实地站，3）管理为科学工作建立的地块，4）通过组织培训研讨会向埃塞俄比亚林业工作者介绍项目的最新成果，5）联络德国研究人员与其埃塞俄比亚合作伙伴，6）加强内部和内部网络（如定期通讯和更新项目网站）; 7）牵头编写Munessa森林可持续管理手册。本建议书还包括成功实施一揽子项目所必不可少的活动和费用。这些活动包括野外工作站的管理、项目车的运行以及造林试验区的有效管理，这是整个一揽子计划的核心。
