Suserup Skov in Denmark is a well-preserved beech-dominated forest reserve with continuity in tree cover at least back to 4200 BC - it is a direct descendent of the primeval forests.
Despite documented historical impact from humans, Suserup Skov is now increasingly characterized by natural disturbance dynamics and is one of the best reference areas for naturalness in the nemoral part of northern Europe.
The research projects focussing on forest dynamics, ecology and biodiversity are included here.
Focuses on three main areas: stand structures and dynamics; water and nutrient cycling processes; vegetation patterns and processes.
Includes a compilation of scientific reviews, detailed case-studies and experimental works.
A unique and in-depth overview of structures and processes in a single forest reserve.
