In 1977, a long-term hydrological monitoring program was launched in the Große Ohe headwater catchment inside the Bavarian Forest National Park. It has been operated by Bavarian state institutions, which reliably ensure high quality measurements. The main aim is to document and investigate changes in water cycling during, and due to, the transition from commercial to near-natural forest under strict protection and nonintervention policy. Moreover, it constitutes the basis for further monitoring activities. The landscape here is remote from strong sources of air pollution but its ecosystems are highly vulnerable to air pollutants. Therefore, the state and federal agencies for environmental issues used this background to implement their own monitoring programs aiming at the effects of transboundary air pollutants on the ecosystem in the Forellenbach subcatchment and groundwater quality in the Markungsgraben subcatchment. The whole of hydrological and hydrobiogeochemical information resulting from this nested approach has been very helpful to cope with the public concern and political pressure related to disturbance effects on ecosystem services. Here we shortly describe catchment characteristics, measuring sites, and methods used of the respective monitoring programs, and present some relevant results and references to highlight their scientific and political value.
