IS FSK 50 RCP8.5 Forest location map 1:50,000 of NRW (overview map), based on the soil map 1:50,000 and climate projections according to scenario RCP8.5 - data set

The data set shows the site properties for forest sites in NRW on a scale of 1 : 50,000 based on projection data according to climate scenario RCP8.5 for the period 2017-2100. The overall water balance and the natural nutrient supply of the locations are shown. Derived from the overall water balance, the drought sensitivity of the forest locations is shown. In further layers, the site properties are aggregated into site types according to the NRW silviculture concept and the site suitability of 16 important forest tree species according to the criteria of the NRW silviculture concept. The information page shows the properties of each area and provides links to information from the NRW forestry concept. It is an evaluation of the soil map of NRW 1 : 50,000 in connection with climate projection data for NRW for the scenario RCP8.5 of the German Weather Service (2070-2100, DWD) and relief data (DGM10, Geobasis NRW). All soil areas are treated equally, regardless of their current use as forest sites or potential forest sites.
