Despite concerns about the negative effects of climate change on forests, awareness of the role of genetic diversity in climate change adaptation is limited. Context: Adaptive forest management strategies such as afforestation and reforestation depend on the selection of appropriate FRM and their knowledge among the relevant stakeholders. Aims: To analyze the perceptions among the forest, conservation, and nursery managers of six Central European countries on awareness of genetic diversity and practical and legislative issues of afforestation and reforestation in climate change. Methods: A survey was conducted with structured questionnaires. Results: Around 80% of the respondents believe in climate change. Local FRM is preferred for reforestation. Although 80% of the conservation and forest managers perceive the importance of forest genetic diversity, almost half of them feel unaware of it. The majority of respondents believe that national and European legislation on seed transfer is not adapted to climate change. Conclusion: Inadequacy in the awareness of genetic diversity and policies on FRM is likely to influence forest adaptation to climate change in Europe.

Forest adaptation to climate change—is non-management an option? / Robert Jandl in Annals of Forest Science, vol 76 n° 2 (June 2019)  

Public [article]  inAnnals of Forest Science > vol 76 n° 2 (June 2019) Titre : Forest adaptation to climate change—is non-management an option? Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Robert Jandl, Auteur ; Peter Spathelf, Auteur ; Andreas Bolte, Auteur ; Cindy E. Prescott, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] changement climatique [Termes IGN] gestion forestière durable [Vedettes matières IGN] Végétation et changement climatique Résumé : (Auteur) Climate change is posing a considerable challenge to foresters. The intensity of required adaptive measures and the relevance of old-growth forests as benchmark for managed forests are debated. Forest managers need to make decisions on stand treatment that are based on climatological and biological parameters with high uncertainties. We provided the conceptual basis for adaptive forest management and provide a number of case studies that reflect the options and limitations of ways of coping with climate change. The examples are derived from the experience of the authors. We conclude that only few forest types are either not strongly affected by climate change or do not require immediate adaptations of forest management. Many productive forests have stand properties that are decisively shaped by past management decisions, such as tree species composition, age distribution, rotation period, and stand structure. Maintaining these properties under the influence of climate change requires continuous and even increasing efforts of forest managers.

Status and dynamics of forests in Germany / Nicole Wellbrock (2019)

Format : 16 x 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-3-030-15734-0 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] Allemagne [Termes IGN] changement climatique [Termes IGN] gestion forestière durable [Termes IGN] inventaire forestier étranger (données) [Termes IGN] peuplement forestier [Termes IGN] puits de carbone [Termes IGN] stress hydrique [Vedettes matières IGN] Inventaire forestier Résumé : (éditeur) Forest ecosystems in Central Europe are changing as a result of anthropogenic influences and changing climate conditions. As such, a large-scale monitoring programme was undertaken in order to understand the influence of site modification, deposition of air pollutants, and climate. This book presents the scientific findings of this study for Germany, including the major challenges with regard to the future preservation and management of forest ecosystems under environmental change. In addition, it addresses a number of central questions: what are the main factors affecting forest stands and soil integrity? How, and how rapidly, are forest ecosystems changing? How diverse are the changes across Germany? What will be the main risks in sustainable forest management in the future? And how can policy support the development and maintenance of adaptive and resilient forests that provide essential ecosystem services, today and in the future? Helping readers understand the importance of soils and related ecosystem processes for future sustainable forestry, and sharing essential findings on environmental change and related changes in forest status and dynamics, the book is a valuable resource for researchers and policymakers interested in science-based decisions.

Is Close-to-Nature Silviculture (CNS) an adequate concept to adapt forests to climate change? / Peter Spathelf in Landbauforschung, vol 65 n° 3-4 (December 2015) 

Public [article]  inLandbauforschung > vol 65 n° 3-4 (December 2015) . - pp 161 - 170 Titre : Is Close-to-Nature Silviculture (CNS) an adequate concept to adapt forests to climate change? Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Peter Spathelf, Auteur ; Andreas Bolte, Auteur ; Ernst van der Maaten, Auteur Année de publication : 2015 Article en page(s) : pp 161 - 170 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Allemand (ger) Descripteur : [Termes IGN] arbre (flore) [Termes IGN] changement climatique [Termes IGN] Europe centrale [Termes IGN] sylviculture [Vedettes matières IGN] Végétation et changement climatique Résumé : (auteur) Climate change projections for Europe suggest increases in temperature, changes in precipitation regimes as well as more frequent and severe weather extremes like heat waves, droughts and storms. As these changes may have a large impact on forest ecosystems, forest management should adapt to maintain vital and productive forests in the future. This review assesses how close-to-nature silviculture (CNS), which is a widespread silvicultural approach in Central Europe, may cope with projected changes in climate. First, a conceptual model of forest vulnerability is outlined, and used to describe climate change exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity of forests. Strategies and options for adaptation, and their compliance with the principles of CNS are then discussed. Modifications in CNS, such as using exotic tree species and provenances or the assisted migration of well adapted tree species from other climates can enhance adaptive capacity of forests. Moreover, the regeneration of stress-tolerant pioneer species can be supported by applying the whole range of silvicultural systems.
