The Erlachsee is under nature conservation standing artificial lake in the natural area Northern Upper Rhine lowland in the south of Karlsruhe in Baden-Wuerttemberg . It is located in the Oberwald in the catchment area of the Kinzig-Murg-Rinne . The Erlachsee nature reserve has shallow water zones and reed beds and is home to many partly protected animal and plant species.
geography
The 16.4 hectare area is located in the Karlsruhe Oberwald in the Durlach district . It comprises an artificially created lake and a surrounding alder-ash forest.
Nature reserve profile
The area was designated as a nature reserve by ordinance on November 30, 1983 and is listed under the protected area number 2.066 at the Karlsruhe Regional Council. It has an area of around 16.4 hectares and is classified in IUCN Category IV, a biotope and species protection area. The WDPA ID is 81619 and corresponds to the European CDDA code and the EUNIS no.
The main protection purpose (§ 3) "is the preservation, protection and development of an artificially created lake with shallow water zones and reed stocks as a habitat for threatened animal and plant species."
The nature reserve is part of the fauna and flora habitat “ Oberwald und Alb in Karlsruhe ” (No. 7016-343) with an area of 599.1 hectares. It is therefore part of the Natura 2000 network.
history
The Stretch Erlachsee was created by dredging in the 1930s for the construction of the autobahn . In 1969 and 1970 gravel was extracted again in the area during the construction of the southern bypass . The area was then recultivated under nature conservation aspects. Today the lake is up to twelve meters deep. The area is fenced.
In 2011 a floating platform was salvaged from the lake by the technical relief organization . The platform served as a breeding island for rare bird species. Due to a leak , it had previously sunk and styrofoam , which was originally used for buoyancy, threatened to leak and pollute the area.
Flora and fauna
Many partly protected animal and plant species can be found in the nature reserve. The gravel-coated islands form breeding grounds for the little ringed plover . The area is important for resting migratory birds , as the shallow water levels at different depths are particularly attractive foraging areas. Furthermore, the lake is a wintering area for diving and swimming ducks.
