Impact of Disturbance Dynamics in the Bavarian Forest in Bayreuth: Lecture at Lindenhof

An evening about forest, change and biodiversity in Bayreuth

On October 6, 2026, a topic that could not be more relevant will be at the forefront at the Environmental Protection Information Center Lindenhof in Bayreuth: How do storms, bark beetles, and natural disturbance dynamics shape biological diversity in the Bavarian Forest? The free lecture starts at 7:30 PM and connects research, nature conservation, and an understandable event experience for everyone who wants to not only see forests but truly understand them.

Research that makes the forest readable in new ways

The speaker of the evening is Prof. Dr. Jörg Müller, head of the nature conservation and research department in the Bavarian Forest National Park and professor at the Julius-Maximilians-University of Würzburg. His work stands for many years of scientific research, biodiversity studies, and a clear target audience targeting between specialists and nature-interested public. The national park describes him as the responsible head for research projects, scientific documentation, and cooperation with universities and institutes.

A lecture with a view of complex interrelations

The event relates to changes in the Bavarian Forest National Park that have become visible over decades due to storm events and bark beetles. According to the event description, this pronounced disturbance dynamics has led to research projects on habitat diversity in forests. The focus is on the consequences for birds and other species groups as well as strategies for sustainable forest nature conservation. This makes the evening particularly exciting for guests who appreciate nature, environmental education, and scientific context.
