Taking into account the winter snow cover of the Sumava mountains, he proposed to postpone the mission to the first week of June 2001, and expressed the wish that the Ramsar Advisory Mission would help to evaluate current management measures for forests damaged by bark beetle outbreaks and its impact on the wetland ecosystems.
While the Bayerischer Wald National Park applies a non-intervention policy, bark beetle populations are controlled in the Sumava National Park with well-established methods (sanitation and individual cutting of infested trees in Zone 1, clearance of larger areas in Zone II).
This has serious impacts, mainly on Zone II areas, as the increasing clear cuttings are influencing the microclimate, and the removal of trees with heavy machinery is seriously impacting soil ecology and mire hydrology.
