The tree mix matters. Near Chesapeake Bay, scientists have been experimenting with mini-forests for over a decade. The ...
To slow the effects of climate change, conserve biodiversity, and meet the sustainable development goals, replanting trees is vital. Restored forests store carbon within the forest's soil, shrubs, and ...
The vast majority of forest restorations contain just one tree species—leaving them vulnerable to pests like the emerald ash ...
Increasing tree species diversity is widely suggested as a way to help forests withstand climate change – especially prolonged droughts. But a new international study led by the University of Freiburg ...
Forestry and nature conservation can benefit from promoting a diversity of tree species, new study finds. Modern forestry is largely based on monocultures—in Sweden usually pine or spruce—mainly ...
The world’s forests are simultaneously climate powerhouses and victims, sucking carbon from the air while facing myriad global warming impacts—from wildfires to pest outbreaks. Recent research found ...
