Synopsis

Two interdisciplinary projects of the Federal Forest Research Centre have been started in the last ten years as a contribution to the Austrian forest ecosystem research programme. Their main goal was an interdisciplinary investigation of interactions between air pollutants and various ecological parameters. Plant/physiological parameters were used to describe the naturally and anthropogenically induced stress patterns caused by different environmental conditions. Biochemical analyses of needles of Norway spruce (Picea abies) including ascorbic acid concentrations, peroxidase activity, thiols and pigments were taken at two altitudinal profiles.
