Where can you find it ? Wilderness simply means to ‘let nature be nature’, and this exactly is the golden rule governing all the fourteen National Parks in Germany. In these places, nature is allowed to develop untrammeled – free from human interference. Karl Friedrich Sinner is the managing director of the Bavarian Forest National Park and Chairman of the Board of EUROPARC Germany and thus the expert for all questions regarding wilderness areas in Germany. What successes have been achieved in recent years in the core areas ? In the Bavarian Forest National Park, nature is In the areas in the National Parks where wilder- allowed to follow its own ness is developing, there is a noticeable increase in immutable laws of living biodiversity and dynamic developments in nature, and dying, of growth, which turn out to be quite different from our tra- decay and rebirth into a vast forest wilderness. ditional notions of preserving species and habitat One usually associates wilderness with areas like the protection.

Why is wilderness so important for Germany ? Recent studies have shown that the core areas of the National Parks are hot spots of biodiversity; they provide us with a first impression of what natural biodiversity means for our country. Un- touched wilderness, with its highly differentiated development phases, provides us with important insights into the right CO₂ balance and CO₂ bonding. Furthermore, in water conservation ar- eas where there is no fishing we can marvel at the former abundance available in the seas and oceans. To be in touch again with wilderness is also one of the profound experiences humans can have when encountering nature. Wilderness is an experience of genesis for people – adventure, myth, fairy-tale worlds, an encounter with a wild beauty and the forces of nature. The slogan ‘let nature be nature’ is a fundamental principle of the National Parks.

Each researcher sketched the basics of his or her work on the palm of their hand, making science tangible in the truest sense of the word! A photographic project which conveys the fascination of science in an unusually accessible way and offers a unique insight into the world of science, where men and women, independent of their origin and nationality, are driven by the same motivations: curiosity and the thirst for knowledge. THE AUTHOR Herlinde Koelbl studied fashion in Munich and only became a photographer in 1976. She has worked for well- draft cover known newspapers and magazines such as Stern, Die Zeit Photographer/Author: Herlinde Koelbl and New York Times. Her first broad success came with the publication of the photo book Das deutsche Wohnzimmer (The German Living Room) (1980), which was followed by other works. From 1991 to 1998, for her biggest project to date, a long-term study, she photographed and interviewed fifteen leading figures from the worlds of politics and business once a year, producing the photographic volume Spuren der Macht (Traces of Power) and an exhibition of the same name.

    Landmark 4 Brocken ® On the 17th of November, 2015, during the 38th UNESCO General Assembly, the 195 member states of the United Nations resolved to introduce a new title. As a result, Geoparks can be distinguished as UNESCO Global Geoparks. As early as 2004, 25 European and Chinese Geoparks had founded the Global Geoparks Network (GGN). In autumn of that year Geopark Harz · Braunschweiger Land · Ostfalen became part of the network. In addition, there are various regional networks, among them the European Geoparks Network (EGN). These coordinate international cooperation. 22 Königslutter 28 ® 1 cm = 26 km 20 Oschersleben 27 18 14 Goslar Halberstadt 3 2 1 8 Quedlinburg 4 OsterodeOsterodee a.H.a.Ha H.. 9 11 5 13 15 161 6 10 17 19 7 Sangerhausen Nordhausen 12 21 In the above overview map you can see the locations of all UNESCO Global Geoparks in Europe, including UNESCO Global Geopark Harz · Braunschweiger Land · Ostfalen and the borders of its parts. UNESCO-Geoparks are clearly defi ned, unique areas, in which geosites and landscapes of international geological importance are found. The purpose of every UNESCO-Geopark is to protect the geological heritage and to promote environmental education and sustainable regional development. Actions which can infl ict considerable damage on geosites are forbidden by law.

  • Case Study Eifel Initiative Final
    Eifel Initiative for the Future, Germany Urban-rural linkages enhancing European territorial competitiveness - Mini case study on business clusters Short description of the setting The Eifel region is a low mountain range in western Germany, bounded on the north, east, and south by the rivers and vineyards of the Ahr, Rhine, and Moselle, and by the forest of the Ardennes of Belgium and Luxembourg in the west. It covers an area of nearly 700.000 ha total, comprising 10 districts in two German Federal States (three districts in North Rhine-Westphalia and seven in Rhineland-Palatinate). All in all, the Eifel region gives home to about 900.000 inhabitants in 53 cities and towns. Amidst the cities of Aachen, Koblenz and Trier which mark the borders of Eifel, the region is rather lacking in infrastructure, with few industrial clusters, but mining, agriculture, viniculture, forestry and dairy farming predominating, and tourism as a growing sector. Savage beauty was and is one of the features of Eifel, and since 2004 about 110 km² of the Eifel have been protected as the nature reserve “Eifel National Park”. Vis à vis these conditions, the need for a joint strategy and co-operation for the development of Eifel as a competitive region was recognised by many actors across borders, and first implemented for the field of tourism. Innovative activity "Eifel - We are future" – with this motto, 10 Eifel districts, 53 local governments und 8 regional chambers of commerce in the two neighbouring German Federal States of Rhineland-Palatinate and North Rhine-Westphalia and the German-speaking Community of Belgium have affiliated in the association “Eifel Initiative” in 2005, and thus established a remarkable regional partnership for creation of value.

  • Indicators of Hemeroby for the Monitoring of Landscapes in Germany
    Indicators to monitor the structural diversity of landscapes Ulrich Walz Leibniz Institute of Ecological Urban and Regional Development, Weberplatz 1, 01217 Dresden, Germany Ecological Modelling 295 (2015) 88–106, http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2014.07.011 ABSTRACT An important level of biodiversity, alongside the diversity of genes and species, is the diversity of ecosystems and landscapes. In this contribution an indicator system is proposed to measure natural diversity (relief, soils, waters), cultural diversity (main land use classes, diversity of land use, ecotones, connectivity) and anthropogenic impacts (fragmentation, hemeroby, protection).The contribution gives an overview of various indicators on landscape diversity and heterogeneity currently used in Germany andEurope. Based on these indicators a complementary system, is presented. The indicators introduced here are derived from regular evaluations of the digital basis landscape model (BasicDLM) of the Authoritative Topographic-Cartographic Information System (ATKIS), the digital land cover model for Germany (LBM-DE) as well as other supplementary data such as the mapping of potential natural vegetation. With the proposed indicators it is possible to estimate cumulative land-use change and its impact on the environmental status and biodiversity, so that existing indicator systems are supplemented with meaningful additional information. Investigations have shown that indicators on forest fragmentation, hemeroby or ecotones can be derived from official geodata. As such geodata is regularly updated, trends in indicator values can be quickly identified. Large regional differences in the distribution of the proposed indicators have been confirmed, thereby revealing deficits and identifying those regions with a high potential for biodiversity. The indicators will be successively integrated into the web-based land-use monitor (http://www.ioer-monitor.de), which is freely available for public use.
