Forest Ecology and - Management Research Institute for Nature and Forest
The team Forest Ecology and Management studies natural processes and interactions in forest ecosystems, and the effects of forest management hereupon. Emphasis is on long-term research and monitoring. Also scientific advisory work on forest policy and management (e.g. on conservation status and management of Natura2000 forest habitats) makes up an important part of the task.
Main topics of the long-term research are:
- the ...
Forest, Nature and Landscape KU Leuven
Overall, the research carried out in this laboratory focuses on the spatial and quantitative assessment of biological and man-induced patterns and processes at the landscape and habitat level both in rural, urban and natural settings. We aim at coupling traditional research on forestry, landscape elements, land use, and biotic communities with earth observation, spatial data sciences, the statistical modeling environment, and planning tools. ...

Own Capital INBO Research Institute for Nature and Forest
The Own Capital team of the INBO (EV INBO) offers administrative, financial and legal support to scientific, technical and support staff with regard to the application, implementation and follow-up of externally financed projects.
Ecosystem Management Research Institute for Nature and Forest
The Ecosystem Management research group focuses on the various aspects of integrated nature conservation and forestry. For example, what can we learn from unmanaged forests and how can natural processes such as wind action, erosion and sedimentation, and herbivory, when combined with focused traditional management techniques, enhance biodiversity in natural areas? What kind of management can ensure that ecosystems function in forests and in ...
