Use of root specific microorganisms enhancing drought stress tolerance of medical plants as for thyme demonstrated (Project)

Thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) extracts are ingredients of many pharmaceutical products mainly deployed for therapeutic applications against pain in joints and for the treatment of catarrhs of the upper respiratory tract. Environmental conditions such as soil quality or nutrient and water availability have a strong impact on thyme yield and spectra of active substances in the essential oils. Thyme...

Development of an environmentally friendly process for obtaining reinforcing fibers for recovered paper based packaging papers (Project)

The decline in consumption and production of graphic papers has resulted in a sharp decline in the input of high-quality fiber material into recovered paper recycling. As a result, a significant scarcity and increase in the cost of recovered paper has occurred. Additionally, the quality of recovered paper has deteriorated progressively. To counter this trend, many paper manufacturers considerd to...

Interaction of global warming and atmospheric nitrogen inputs in controlling the rejuvenation success of beech compared to more drought-tolerant tree species (Project)

Climate change is highly critical for forestry, since tree species have to be selected for cultivation many decades before their harvest. A high share of Germany’s forest vegetation would naturally be formed by European beech. Therefore, this species has strongly been promoted in silviculture. However, beech turned out to be susceptible to increasing summer drought. Dry periods in summer will...

Development of innovative treeshelters made of renewable resources & concepts to avoid plastic accumulation in the forest (Project)

Plastic products are under criticism for producing persistent particles in the environment. In forest estates throughout Germany tree shelters (abbr. TS, mostly made of PE, PP, HDPE, PVC) are amounting to a two-digit million of newly installed items/y. Such plastic products play a significant role as many are not collected but often remain in the forest. In the future the use of tree species that...
