ForestsForestryWestern region (United States)Adaptive capacityClimate is constantly changing, prompting natural and managed ecosystems to adjust. As a natural process, adaptation refers to the reactive changes that species and ecosystems make in response to environmental changes. With human intervention, ...
Changing land into farms or pastures (牧场) removes forests and worsens climate change. And climate change is 1 farms that already exist. Thus, we have to take measures to grow more crops to 2 a growing global population. A greenhouse is a building almost entirely 3 glass or plastic. This...

Modern technology is helping build the healthy forests of the future. Able to do more than ever, it’s observing, even predicting, fire behavior and helping determine which species of tree may endure climate change and the threat of wildfire better than others. A Complex Fire Quilt The many ...
Forest adaptation resources: Climate change tools and approaches for land managers The forests of northern Wisconsin, a defining feature of the region's landscape, are expected to undergo numerous changes in response to the changing climate. This document provides a collection of resources designed to...
However, forests and their species distribution are directly and indirectly affected by climate change, via abiotic and biotic disturbances: Storm and drought events can have as great an impact on stand stability and vigour, as occurrences of disease and the actions of pests. 展开 ...
The 170 National Forests and Grasslands (NFs) in the conterminous United States are public lands that provide important ecosystem services such as clean water and timber supply to the American people. This study investigates the potential impacts of climate change on two key ecosystem functions (i....
Future of UK peatlands under threat due to climate change The UK's peatlands face an uncertain future amid the escalating impacts of climate change. Peatlands are critical ecosystems for carbon storage and biodiversity, containing more carbon than all the world's forests despite ... ...
Under both climate conditions the model projected greater sensitivity to varying the length of cutting period than cutting intensities. Hypothetical model simulations highlight future challenges in maintaining long-term productivity of managed forests under changing climate due to a potential for a ...
CLIMATE changeFOREST mappingThe target of this work was to assess the impact of projected climate change on the number of large forest fires (over 10 ha fires) and burned area in Finland. For this purpose, we utilized a strong relationship between fire occurrence and th...
