Long-term project wetland habitat
The aim of this long-term project is to systematically explore the unique school biotope of the HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein with students and to compile the results in a documentation folder. Interim reports will be issued regularly and will also be published.
Building on the study results, a wide variety of detailed projects are planned, bringing nature closer to our students and others as well.
Important completed projects that form an essential basis for the long-term project "School Biotope":
- Construction of a large observation tower (Project: Karl Grabenweger)
- Current state assessment and surveying of the school biotope (Project: Herwig Pieslinger & Reinhard Wolf)
Project development overview:
- Design and planning of a biotope information panel at the cycle path rest area
- Preservation and design of existing infrastructure (elevated hunting stand, footbridges...)
- Record and map biotope structures and biotope types on a small scale
- Plant sociological inventories
- Faunistic observations: Species records, behavioral observations of various animal groups: e.g., birds, insects, arachnids, fish, benthos, plankton...
- Species conservation projects
- Action days for other schools, under the motto: "Students teaching students", "Understanding nature"...
- … this outline can of course be expanded!
Implementation: All interested teachers and students at HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein can actively participate in the project. In particular, the departments of practical science, chemistry, and geography are invited by the lead biologists to help implement the ideas.
