Climate change indicators and vulnerability of boreal zone applying innovative observation and modeling techniques (LIFE MONIMET)
Date du début: 2 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 1 sept. 2017,
Background
The magnitude of climate change is considered to be dependent on the atmospheric load of the two most important greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). The terrestrial biosphere plays an important role in the global carbon balance, and boreal forests and peatlands are an important part of the global carbon cycle. The future de ...

Towards the Sustainable Management of Forest Genetic Resources in Europe (FORGER)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 29 févr. 2016,
Forest genetic resources (FGR) form the base for adaptation of European forests to future environmental conditions and societal demands. Appropriate use and sustainable management of FGR is therefore of utmost importance. Past decades have shown: (i) an immense progress in detecting patterns of genetic diversity, due to fast technological advances, (ii) increased knowledge on the modelling of resp ...

International Network for Terrestrial Research and Monitoring in the Arctic (INTERACT)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
Environmental change and particularly amplified global climate change are accelerating in the Arctic. These changes already affect local residents and feedback from the Arctic’s land surface to the climate system, will have global implications. However, climate change and its impacts are variable throughout the wide environmental and land use envelopes of the Arctic. Unfortunately, the Arctic is g ...

Climate change induced drought effects on forest growth and vulnerability (Climforisk)
Date du début: 2 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,
Background
The Fourth Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggests that in the coming decades regional weather patterns will be altered and extreme weather events will become more commonplace. These changing weather patterns will induce changes in the environment that will affect the growth and vitality of forests.

New Ways to Value and Market Forest Externalities (NEWFOREX)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 31 mai 2014,
"Many forest goods and services are not marketed. Methods for assessing these values are incomplete, and so is an understanding of who benefits from them. Forest owners are not rewarded for the value of these externalities and may make decisions providing less externalities than optimal. We can increase welfare, if we develop ways to enhance their provision. The objectives of NEWFOREX are: 1: To p ...

The need to enhance collaborative planning of natural resources has been recognised in many international conventions and reflected in the evolving legislation of the EU and the Member States. E.g. a new type of strategic planning approach has been launched. This “program-based planning of natural resources” (PBPNR) approach requires taking into consideration local level actors and stake-holders. ...
