Models of disturbance driven dynamics in the West Carpathian spruce forests
Disturbances of different spatial extent and intensity play an important role in the Western Carpathian Norway spruce forests. These forests are shaped mainly by severe winds, often followed by bark beetle infestations. Their intensity varies substantially, resulting in variability of disturbance regimes.

East Meets West in the Western Carpathians: Contact Zone Between Alpine and Carpathian Caddisfly Lineages Evidenced by COI Barcodes [PDF]
Abstract European mountains are important areas regarding biodiversity of the continent, and they also harbour diverse freshwater fauna, which is critically endangered in terms of the current species extinction. However, sufficient knowledge of this valuable part of European biota is no longer possible without molecular data. This study focuses
