Elsevier Climate Change Effects on Forests - Sustainable Management Guide

Effects of Climate Change on Forests is an evidence-based primer from Elsevier that equips forest managers and environmental professionals with practical strategies for sustainable management of temperate and Mediterranean forests. This comprehensive guide integrates climate science with forest ecology, presenting case studies and theoretical frameworks that demonstrate how forest planning directly influences ecological resilience and long-term forest health. Rather than relying solely on traditional static planning approaches, the book emphasises adaptive management by tracking growth variability and ecological processes over time. It bridges the gap between climate science and forestry practice, showing how understanding climate impacts on forest dynamics enables managers to make informed decisions that sustain both forest productivity and ecosystem services. Essential reading for forestry professionals, environmental consultants, and policymakers seeking evidence-based approaches to climate-resilient forest stewardship.
