MAIN PROBLEMS

➢ Determine the amount of water needed, via

➢ETP (tree species, age, canopy closure, etc)

➢Groundwater flow

➢Different governmental purposes regarding the water

management (drainage – retention)

ECOLOGICAL FLOW – ENVIRONMENTAL

FLOW

As planned – ~10 000 ha → 300 000 m3 water

30 m3/ha/ day, else 3592 m3/current area/vegetation period

Water-need supplied by groundwater

Decreasing groundwater decreasing water level

Sensitivity to drought (warm – moderate dry / moderate warm – moderate dry)

CONCLUSIONS

❖Planned forestry works → ← Planned water level

❖Area is endangered by drought – extra water demand, even for current stands

❖Studied area is under protection of „Ramsar 2000” → must be maintained by stakeholders

❖opposite intentions regarding water management → one must take into account the extra water-quantity needed to maintain environmental flows and forestry areas when planning
