Jena Study Reveals: Why Mosses are the Secret Heroes of Our Forests
Researchers from Friedrich Schiller University Jena have discovered that mosses play a crucial role in protecting our environment. At the Saale-Elster-Sandsteinplatte-Observatorium, a study showed that these small plants act as highly effective filters, preventing excess nitrogen from reaching the groundwater. This research provides vital new insights for sustainable forestry and ecosystem protection in Thuringia.
