A new study shows that in Italian black pine forests, moderate thinning best balances wood production with key ecosystem services like carbon storage, soil protection & recreational value.

New paper! ๐ณ iWUE in a beech forest shows no big differences across silvicultural treatments, but rises ~20% by 2050 under climate change. At this site, climateโnot managementโdrives future iWUE. doi.org/10.1007/s116...
๐ฟThe lab is glad to share a new paper, led by Daniela Dalmonech!
Mediterranean forests can look green and productive from satellite imagery, while trees are actually struggling to grow. Canopy greening masks hidden vulnerability under climate change. ๐ณ@ddalmo.bsky.social

Afforestation and reforestation, when aligned with site-specific ecological and socioeconomic conditions, can enhance ecosystem functions and services (ESs). In the Mediterranean, European black pine ...

New study published!
๐Climate change is reshaping European forests, conifers losing ground to broadleaved species. By the end of the century, dominant species could shift dramatically.
๐ณForests aren't just responding to climate change. They're being reshaped by it.

We welcome work on ecohydrological & biogeochemical processes under changing land use/cover & climate, including:
๐น Field/lab studies
๐น Remote sensing & drones
๐น Modeling & AI
๐น Digital twins & new EO data
Interdisciplinary studies bridging ecology and hydrology are especially encouraged! ๐ณ
Climate-driven shifts in competitive strength show declining dominance of evergreen conifers and rising competitiveness of broadleaved species across Europe, based on a deep-learning meta-model traine...

Not every day you get to share a paper published in @science.org . Yesterday โClimate change will increase forest disturbances in Europe throughout the 21st centuryโ was published. In short: wildfires, windstorms and insect outbreaks are projected to increase across Europe as the climate warms ๐๐ฒ
Alessio Collalti
The future of Europeโs forest disturbance regimesโ a thread.
Tl, dr: Disturbances from wildfire, bark beetles & wind will continue to increase in the coming decades. Under unabated climate change disturbances could more than double by 2100.
