Nature management services
Promoting biodiversity and the continuity of ecosystem services, nature management services are an important part of sustainable development and environmental management.
Nature management services
Nature management services promote biodiversity, landscape values and ecosystem sustainability in forests, water systems, meadows and urban areas. Our services cover sustainable forest management, restoration of water bodies and wetlands as well as the planning and supervision of ecological restoration.
Nature management services support sustainable environmental management and combine the objectives of nature conservation, recreational use and site planning. Above all, the measures aim to improve biodiversity in the target area. In addition to this, our services include erosion control, nature-based water flows and natural stormwater management.
Our nature management services
01
Planning of forest and green space management
The planning of forest and park management, planting, thinning and landscape management measures as well as supervision of work. Conservation and promotion of forest biodiversity, deadwood addition and diversification of tree species composition.
02
Water system and wetland management and restoration of small water bodies
The planning of the rehabilitation and management of rivers, creeks, lakes and wetlands as well as plans of catchment-area level. Improving the state of water bodies, e.g. eutrophication prevention, control of invasive species and shoreline vegetation management.
03
Conservation of habitats and biodiversity
Conservation measures of threatened habitats such as mires and old-growth forests. Restoration and rehabilitation of habitats, including restoring water bodies to their natural state and improving the habitats of species.
04
Ecological restoration
Restoration of nature sites to their former state, natural state or as close to it as possible. The aim is to improve the living conditions of species that thrive in the ecosystem and to combat the loss of biodiversity. Restoration can be a one-time measure or a continuous process to restore nature to its natural state.
Objectives of nature management services
1. Maintaining ecological balance
Planned care supports the natural plant community and biota of nature sites.
2. Preserving and improving biodiversity
The aim is to promote the diversity of species and to restore and rehabilitate habitats.
3. Improving recreational use and comfort
Nature management combines recreational use and the protection of biodiversity.
4. Adaptation to climate change
Nature management supports the adaptation of natural areas to the impacts of climate change by reducing erosion and improving the condition of soil and water bodies through, for example, rehabilitation of small waters and forest habitats and restoration of mires.
