What is Restoration Ecology?

Restoration Ecology addresses the question how to repair various human-disturbed sites. It provides a scientific basis for practical ecological restoration and promotes, among others, the use of spontaneous or reasonably managed succession in the greatest possible extent without using traditional methods of technical reclamation.

Christmas mood in the field

Published on Dec 13, 2017

Even the freezing weather cannot discourage us from going out into the field. This time we visited Moldavite mining site Hrbov. Although a large part of the site is planned for forestry reclamation, some water and wetland plots and their surroundings will be left for spontaneous development. We are happy that they are willing to use spontaneous development as a reclamation measure, and that the owner of the mining company is interested in working with us.
