Reirrigation of the Mittergraben
The Mittergraben is a nearby stream of the Salzach and was running out of water. The water authority Traunstein discharged water of the Freilassinger Mühlbach into the Mittergraben to revitalize the floodplain and create diverse water structures. 
Removal of shrubs and mowing at the Moor Ewige Sau
The BUND Naturschutz cares for about 3 ha of the moor Ewige Sau and carries out mainenance measures, e.g. removal of shrubs and regular mowing. 
Restoration of the Dümfelmoos
The BUND Naturschutz frees areas of the Dümfelmoos from woody plants and rewets them. This should enable the moor to grow again and thus contribute to climate and species protection. 
Restoration and ecological improvement of the Kieferbach near Wachtel
The Kiefernbach was regulated at the beginning of the twentieth century. The river bed and the embankment got protected by bricked or concreted lintels. In order to improve the ecological situation and the flood protection the drop structures was replaced by river bed ramps, the embankment was flattened and the watercourse was widened. After these measures gravel islands can form and alluvial forest can develope. 
Protection forest management in Slovenia
"Traditional land use (agriculture and forestry) is being abandoned in the Alps due to socioeconomic changes, while an increasingly larger area is being used for tourism and infrastructure, which requires protection from natural hazards. Forests provide permanent protective functions, but only if they are properly and sustainably managed. There has been a general decline in forest management in Europe and in the Alps in particular, where it is difficult to achieve positive economic returns. Climate change has increased the frequency of extraordinary weather phenomena, which causes higher risk from natural hazards and weakening of forest... more
Removal of shrubs and extensive use of the spring moors and wet meadows between Ruhpolding and Ainring
Moors and litter meadows are endangered mainly from two sides. On the one hand there is the intensification of use in agriculture. A frequent cause is the nutrient input from neighboring areas, which promotes the conversion of vegetation into more nutritious meadow communities or tall herbaceous fields. On the other hand, there is the abandonment of land use, which leads to a lignification of the area. The Landschaftspflegeverband Traunstein maintains these areas by removing woods and mowing the area regularly. In this way the ecosystem functions of moors can be preserved and the flora and fauna can be protected.  The measures are part of... more
Flood protection Obere Iller Section Immenstadt
Following 1999 floods, the flood protection at the Iller was improved. The Iller was widened and a new retention area and a 250 m long groyne was created. 
Maintain and improve the functionality of protection forests: “Mountain Forest Initiative”
In 2007, Bavaria launched the “Climatic Program Bavaria 2020” which includes different measures for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, adaptation to climate change and the intensification of research and development. A special set of measures known as the “Mountain Forest Initiative” (Bergwaldoffensive, BWO), focuses on the adaptation of the alpine forests in Bavaria to climate change. The central aim of the BWO is to stabilise and sustainably adapt the alpine mountain forests to climate change. For this purpose, 30 projects were identified in areas with special climatic risks. Integrated master plans were developed for these pro-... more
Flood protection Obere Iller Section Sonthofen / Ofterschwang
Following 1999 floods, the Obere Iller was widened in the Section Sonthofen / Ofterschwang and new retention areas were created. 
Construction of a side arm at the Iller near Tannheim
The originally natural gradient is largely removed as a consequence of the straightening of the Iller by the erected transverse structures.This created stretches of water with a low gradient and the pre-alpine flowing water properties were lost. Through the construction of side arms, an attempt is being made to create an extended watercourse habitat with natural bed layers and high habitat function. It enables an approximation to the natural, branched course of the watercourse with its numerous side channels. The measure is part of the project Agile Iller.
