HYDROFOR: Systems of optimal forest management for enhancing the hydrological role of forests in preventing the floods in Bodrog river catchment (HUSKROUA/1101/262)
Date du début: 30 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 30 juil. 2015 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

The project aims to contribute to the harmonised prevention of flood risks in Bodrog river catchment through enhancement of hydrological effect of forests and improved forest management practicesSpecific objectives: To analyse landscape potential for flood initialisation in the Bodrog river catchment; To elaborate Methodology for flood predisposing factors assessment in the Bodrog river catchment; To assess the forest effect on watershed`s hydrology in the Bodrog river catchment, inter alios simulating the forest effect on watershed`s hydrology; To develop convincing recommendation for forest managers for the improvement of forest management methods and practices for strengthening forest flood-regulatory capacity; To demonstrate the interrelation between forest management practices, landscape parameters and flood risk in the field; To build and maintain information exchange and dialog of foresters with local communities and stakeholders; To raise awareness and reach the public understanding of the essence of interrelation of forest management methods and practices with forest flood-regulatory capacity. Expected Results: R1. Data of landcover in the Bodrog river catchment jointly collected and analysed, including list of environmental variables with information on temporal and spatial extensionR2. Methodology for flood predisposing factors assessment in the Bodrog river catchment jointly adopted and agreed R3. Assessment of forest effect on watershed`s hydrology focusing on flood prevention in the Bodrog river catchment and simulation of forest effect on watershed`s hydrology conducted R4. Recommendations for forest managers for the improvement of forest management methods and practices for strengthening forest flood-regulatory capacity developed, agreed and discussed with stakeholders.R5. Simulation of the effect of changes in landcover on hydrological balance of model watershed(s) in the study region conducted, maps, charts and reports on the effect of various landscape structures elaboratedR6. Field demonstration of relations between forest management and flood risk conductedR.7.The proposed measures on optimisation of methods for management plans perceived by forestry managers and practitioners R.8. Constructive dialog among the foresters and communities and stakeholders of target area builtR.9. General public is more aware of the interrelation of forest management methods and practices with forest flood-regulatory capacity
