Charlotte Elisabeth Schedl (born September 20, 1923 in Schladnitz near Leoben , Styria , † September 15, 2012 in Vienna ) was an Austrian zoologist and wood protection researcher. From 1951 to 1956 she worked as a secretary under the direction of Forest Director Elsässer in the Forest Protection Department, Chamber of Agriculture and Forestry in Graz. From 1956 until her retirement in 1984 she worked as an employee in the wood protection department of the Austrian Wood Research Institute in Vienna (Arsenal) under the direction of Professor Kurt Lowag, among others. In addition, she worked for a few semesters as a lecturer for wood protection issues with seminars and exercises at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences in Vienna . In her pension, Schedl was active in several wood protection committees for a long time.

Life

Charlotte E. Schedl was born on September 20, 1923 as the first daughter (and older sister of Wolfgang D. Schedl) to Karl E. Schedl and his wife Herta, née Tretzmüller, in Schladnitz. She also spent the first years of her life there.

From 1928 to 1932 the family lived in Canada , where the father worked as an entomologist for the Entomological Branch of the Department of Agriculture, first in the Parasite Laboratory in Chatham , Ontario , Canada and then on the first plane control of forest pests. Charlotte Schedl attended an elementary school there for four years. In 1932 he moved back to Vienna. As early as 1934, the family moved first to Westeregeln near Magdeburg , then to Munich and finally to Hannoversch-Münden , Germany, because their father Karl E. Schedl was employed as a forest entomologist . There she graduated from high school for three years and passed her Abitur in Kassel at the Jacob Grimm School in 1942 .

In the summer semester of 1942 she began studying zoology and botany at the University of Göttingen with a focus on zoology, entomology, systematics, physiology, microbiology and mineralogy. She continued her studies at the University of Vienna in the winter of 1942 .

In March 1944 he was called up for labor service and military service in Lower Austria . After her release at the end of March 1945, Charlotte Schedl returned to her family and spent the end of the war with her grandparents in Lienz , East Tyrol . In 1948 she continued her studies at the University of Graz at the Zoological Institute with Professor Karl von Frisch, Professor Umrath, Professor Reisinger, Systemic Botany with Professor Widder and with Professor Weber in Plant Physiology. Charlotte Schedl received her doctorate on May 8, 1951 .

Services

Schedl worked from 1951 to 1956 as a secretary under the direction of Forest Director Elsässer in the Forest Protection Department, Chamber of Agriculture and Forestry in Graz. From 1956 until her retirement in 1984 she worked in the wood protection department of the Austrian Wood Research Institute in Vienna (Arsenal) under the direction of Professor Kurt Lowag, among others. There she dealt with biological tasks such as B. pests on built-in wood, testing of beetle and sponge infestation in houses, basements and attics, with the testing of various wood preservatives as well as impregnation tests in the laboratory and in the field. Another focus was on the impregnation of wood, the inhibiting effect of chipboard and wood fiber boards against fungal attack, effective wood protection in wood construction, types of protection agents and corresponding treatment methods. Investigations of house buck and anobia damage were carried out in various climate zones in Austria from Lake Neusiedl to the high valleys of Tyrol, as well as preventive measures for subsequent roof extensions.
