Crown Condition Survey

How is the forest doing in Germany? The Forest Condition Survey (WZE; Level I monitoring) investigates this question. The nationwide survey takes annually place on an area-representative sample grid in order to assess the vitality condition of forest trees.

National Forest Soil Survey

The National Forest Soil Inventory characterizes the condition of forest soils, identifies changes in the soil condition since the first inventory and answers current research questions, e.g. regarding the carbon inventory.
