Forests, through their capacity to sequester carbon and produce renewable materials, are key assets to reach these environmental goals. European forests are encountered across wide biogeographic gradients and have recently shown contrasted productivity responses to climate change. Maximizing the climate benefits of European forests requires to precisely track forest productivity trajectories across regions in a continuously changing growing environment. National Forest Inventories (NFIs) perform systematic forest surveys across space and time and are powerful tools to monitor forest productivity dynamics and climate controls upon forest productivity at wide geographical scales. Building upon the ongoing pan-European harmonization of NFI data and information, we developed an original and promising modeling framework to extract large-scale climate-driven productivity dynamics and confront them to silvicultural and environmental attributes. With its simple and versatile design, it can be easily applied to diverse NFI schemes (annual vs. periodic field campaigns, permanent vs. temporary plots, radial increment vs. diameter measurements). To illustrate its promising potential to monitoring forest productivity dynamics, we consecutively applied it to study pure and even-aged conifer forests (1) in France over the 2006-2016 and (2) in France and Austria over the 1996-2016 period. Results highlighted in both cases a strong control of water resources on recent productivity trends, particularly in plains where fast-growing conifers species have been massively introduced during the XXe century and where sequestration dynamics have been the least favorable. Greater forest structural complexity was also identified as a driver of greater forest resilience to climate change. These results are of major concerns when conifer plantations have been largely encouraged these last decades, notably through state financial programs. Harmonized NFI data at the transnational level provide reliable information to i) survey carbon sequestration dynamics of different regional forest sinks; (ii) alert on the weakening of these sinks, (iii) implement large-scale climate-smart forest management; and (iv) adapt carbon sequestration strategies (ex. tree species substitution). The application of the present framework to other NFIs in Europe would support an integrative and continental monitoring of forest resources, in line with current EU strategies.
