Swiss Canopy Crane II research site

alt text

This research site is located near Hölstein in Canton Basel-Landschaft in a mature temperate forest that harbours more than 400 trees from 14 different species. The 1.6 ha site is equipped with the latest infrastructure, including 60 automated point dendrometers, automated soil respiration chambers, 72 ceramic suction cups at various locations and depths across the site, and a range of automated environmental sensors in the soil, the forest floor and in the canopy. A key piece of infrastructure is the new Swiss Canopy Crane II (SCC II), a 50 m tall crane with a 50 m jib that provides canopy access to 250 trees from 12 different species.
