Description:
Forests and Climate Change
The work of this group supports national and regional adaptation in Africa by means of an improved scientific understanding of the impacts of climate change on forests and people in Africa and the options and priorities for adaptation.
IUFRO’s Scientist Assistance Programme (SAP https://www.iufro.org/science/special/spdc/i-scientist-assistance-progr…) aims to provide forest scientists from economically disadvantaged countries with financi

Assessing differences in competitive effects among tree species in central British Columbia, Canada.
Research Highlights: We investigated the competitive interactions among three tree species (interior Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var.
This study sought to gain insight into the impact of thinning treatments on stand structure dynamics in uneven-aged interior Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca (Beissn.) Franco) dominated stands in central British Columbia (BC), Canada.
Understanding the spatial patterns of trees and their interactions can reveal the ecological processes driving forest stand structure and stand development over time. We assessed temporal changes in tree spatial patterns in uneven-aged interior Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var.
We assessed the impacts of three approaches to thinning from below with varying spatial patterns on several stand and individual tree variables for interior Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var.
