Functional ecology and sustainable management of the Munessa forest, Ethiopia - Central project

热带山地森林日益受到人类活动的威胁。整个项目包的目的是确定在个别树木和林分一级的调节和稳定方面的生态生理和生态系统的主要特点，作为可持续管理和养护森林资源的基础。中心项目有三个主要目标：（1）项目的后勤组织，（2）中心数据服务，（3）数据综合和综合利用。总体项目组织的任务将是当地管理，协调各个项目之间的实地工作，并促进项目包成员之间以及与埃塞俄比亚同行之间的沟通和科学合作。中央数据库将以网络数据仓为基础。中央数据服务包括数据库的调整、实施和维护。科学的综合数据利用将通过一个里程碑式的概念来实现，跨学科的出版物将解决主要目标。此外，该中心项目还将牵头编写一份Munessa森林可持续管理手册。

Tropical mountain forests are increasingly endangered by anthropogenic impact. The entire project package aims at the identification of ecophysiological and ecosystem key features with regard to regulation and stability at the individual tree and the stand levels, as a basis for sustainable management and conservation of forest resources. The central project has three major goals: (1) logistical organisation of the project, (2) central data service, and (3) data synthesis and integrative utilisation. Tasks of the general project organisation will be local management, coordination of field work between the individual projects, and facilitate communication and scientific collaboration between members of the project package and with the Ethiopian counterparts. The central data bank will be based on the web-based data warehouse . The central data service includes adaptation, implementation, and maintenance of the data base. Scientific integrative data utilisation will be realised by a milestone concept with inter-disciplinary publications addressing the major goals. Further, the central project will lead the preparation of a manual for the sustainable management of the Munessa forest.
