This report addresses the contribution of deadwood to the risk of forest fires. Deadwood is considered a biodiversity indicator in forest ecosystems. Understanding its link with fire risk is necessary to inform...
A recent analysis found that tall, mature forests — which are critical for storing carbon and safeguarding biodiversity — are declining significantly in some parts...
The EEA’s knowledge work relies on high-quality data. Through our network and other institutional partners across 38 European countries, we collect, quality-assure and quality-check...
We present the new Database of European Forest Insect and Disease Disturbances (DEFID2). It comprises over 650,000 harmonized georeferenced records of European forests, sampled...
Unmanaged land areas are not included in current national reports on greenhouse gas emissions for the Paris Agreement. Here, we argue that carbon dioxide fluxes...
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture (mainly methane and nitrous oxide emissions) and from Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF, mainly carbon dioxide emissions)...
Carbon storage in forests is a cornerstone of policy-making to prevent global warming from exceeding 1.5°C. However, the global impact of management (for example, harvesting) on the carbon budget of forests...
Healthy forests are our key ally in our fight against climate change. European forests absorb almost 10% of all the greenhouse gasses that are...
European forests are facing multiple natural and anthropogenic pressures which are expected to become more severe in the next decades. Tree diversity is projected to decline...
