Grant agency of the Czech Ministry of Agriculture supported our team by NAZV grant for Alena Walmsley's project called Optimization of forest restoration at sites affected by surface mining. The aim of the project is a complex evaluation of large-scale forest reclamations on habitats altered by surface brown coal mining. The goal is to evaluate forest regeneration options with respect to potential value of reclaimed forest considering the primary production and the potential to provide ecosystem services – carbon sequestration, soil water retention, biodiversity, erosion control and cultural services.
