The latest in our Climate Change Factsheet series have been published today, Wednesday 9th February.
Aimed at practitioners, the factsheets showcase the breadth of research carried out by Forest Research, sometimes over decades, demonstrating how trees and forests are facing the challenges of climate change, and offering actionable insights into how trees and woodlands can help mitigate the effects of climate change.
These next four factsheets cover adaptation, urban forests and the effects of climate change on the impact of Canker and Phytophthora. The factsheets can be viewed and downloaded from the links below:
Climate change and tree diseases (Canker) – Forest Research
Climate change and tree diseases (Phytophthora) – Forest Research
Climate change and urban forests – Forest Research
Climate change adaptation – Forest Research
There are now 12 factsheets in the series, and they can be viewed on this website.
A new study, led by Forest Research, has been published which looks at whether Ips typographus would select Sitka spruce, compared to Norway spruce, as a host for breeding, and for the first time, reviews the chemical ecology behind these choices.
Forest Research is looking for private woodland or forest managers to participate in a research project. We’re investigating how the risk of climate change is perceived and the extent to which adaptation measures are built into management plans.
Forest Research is leading Defra’s NCEA programme, measuring, mapping and assessing England’s ecosystems and natural capital to inform environmental policy and sustainability.
