Abstract | A project for restoring habitat specific floodplain forests is underway in the Danube valley between Neuburg and Ingolstadt (Germany). It is intended to model the natural water regime by controlled surface flooding in order to allow progression towards natural floodplain vegetation with high biodiversity. This project is accompanied by the Faculty of Mathematics and Geography of the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt. Scientific monitoring was arranged by the Department of Applied Physical Geography. The Department of Geography Education has been authorised to develop a concept for the Environment Education and Information Centre. This visitor centre will be established in a former hunting residence. The draft of the educational concept, which was meant to consider the approach of sustainable development, was realised within the scope of a project seminar (tutorial workshop) for teacher students. An excursion to the habitat site marked the beginning of the project. With the aid of colleagues from the Departments of Physical Geography and Landscape Ecology, the ecosystem ‘floodplain forest’ and the human interventions were defined and discussed. Furthermore, the students surveyed pupils and adults for their actual knowledge and preconceptions on this environmental topic and determined their ideas and desires as potential visitors. The main result of the survey was that students and locals have only little knowledge on floodplain forests. This accentuates the need for a visitor centre to highlight this unique eco-system and restoration-project. (Orig.). |
