Tips

There is no human intervention whatsoever in the Meersiepenkopf and Steinsieperhöh natural forest cells. The result:

In the long run, beeches will displace oaks. The unfortunate thing is that beeches die faster in dry years. Nature cannot predict the climate change that will occur over the next 50 years.

But humans can anticipate and establish resilient trees now. Just as they did with the 100 non-native tree species around them.
