Description
Worker will meet in the context of mobility with workers Norwegian research team in Earth observation department in Northern Research Institute (NORUT) in Tromso, he is familier with the results of their research and and introduces them to Czech research. Furthermore worker will compare site conditions in northern Norway and the Czech Republic and he will analyze composition of domestic and introduced woody plants species in northern Norway and their species diversity. Furthermore worker performs comparison of composition and species diversity in northern Norway and the Czech Republic. In the finals will be identified data evaluated and will be outline the possibilities of use of woody plants growing in climates of northern Norway for extreme site conditions of the Czech Republic (eg. landfills, dumps and other sites with degraded soils). The research results will subsequently be published in scientific journals and presented at a public lecture at CULS.
Summary of project results
The project brings in the Czech Republic unique research into the possible use of woody plants growing in the harsh site conditions in northern Norway for extreme site conditions of the Czech Republic (eg. Landfills, dumps and other sites with degraded soils), especially sub-mountainous areas of western and northern Bohemia, where rise a new landscape for surface coal mining. And it is difficult to find suitable woody plants for these degraded soil substrates without overlay of topsoil in extreme site conditions. For this purpose, the researcher visited the abandoned mines after mining in northern Norway, which recommended the Norwegian partner. In these mines was done monitoring of vegetation, on the basis of which were a listed plant species, which are able to grow without the overlay of topsoil in extreme site conditions and these species were recommended for distribution in extreme sites in Czech Republic.
