Description
The forest is not just a sequence of trees, but a living network in which every organism interacts with others. During this guided excursion, you will explore how the forest functions based on competition and cooperation relationships between trees: sharing or competing for light, water, and nutrients, underground communication, and growth strategies. You will also discover the essential symbioses that connect trees with mycorrhizal fungi, bacteria, lichens, and wildlife, as well as the traces animals leave behind. Finally, the trip will address the impacts of climate warming on the forests of Val-de-Ruz: water stress, new diseases, dieback, and adaptation strategies. An accessible experience for everyone to better understand the forest as a complex, sensitive, and resilient ecosystem. Guided excursion in French.
