NEW ARTICLE OUT @forestecosyst.bsky.social 📰Large-scale modelling wind damage vulnerability through combination of high-resolution forest resources maps and ForestGALES www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

New paper! 📃🌲 #ForwardsEU team at @luke.fi recently published a new paper researching how plot size and the rarity of old-growth forests affect the resulting accuracy associated with the remote sensing mapping of old-growth forests. Find the paper at: cdnsciencepub.com/doi/10.1139/...

Realistic models of the potential for global reforestation suggest that it could absorb roughly 5% of human CO2 emissions. This is still worthwhile but nowhere near a solution on its own. New paper just published 🧪🌏🌐

Turvemaiden kuusikko voi palautua poimintahakkuusta odotettua nopeammin. Kaksi uutta tutkimusta osoittaa, että ravinteikkaan ojitetun turvemaan kuuset kasvattavat juuriaan ja sitovat hiiltä jo heti hakkuun jälkeen. #turvemetsä #hiilensidonta #metsätalous Lue lisää: www.luke.fi/fi/uutiset/t...

This is a must read for all forest modelers out there trying to predict climate change impacts on forests!

How to calculate connectivity metrics in the R programming language? Using the Makurhini package. It includes many of the connectivity analyses in Conefor and many more. Great collaboration led by Oscar Godínez and Camilo Correa. Read it in our preprint: www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-6...

🌲 The SafeNet project kicks off—in dreamy Tuusula, Helsinki!🌲 We are building a network to safeguard forests, starting with a thread (literally) to show how we are all connected. Because protecting trees starts with loving them, frostbite and all! ❄️🌍 #Biodiversity #Carbonrich #OldgrownForests

3rd day of SafeNet #HEUproject kick-off: an excursion to Tuusula Sarvikallio forest area combining conservation, management, recreation. Discussing options for improving biodiversity, connectivity and protecting old-growth forests. Thanks for a fruitful meeting! @safenet-eu.bsky.social @luke.fi

Second day of SafeNet #HEUproject kick-off: exploring collaborations with sister projects, including ForBest, BottomsUp, NaturaConnect and a new #HEUproject Trees4Adapt coordinated by two SafeNet-Luke members. @safenet-eu.bsky.social @luke.fi #OldGrowthForests #HorizonEurope #Biodiversity

Happy to start tweeting in Bluesky by announcing that we have just started a new Horizon Europe project SafeNet we’re coordinating at Luke with my dear colleague Jukka Forsman and me. Aiming at improving biodiversity and protecting old-growth forests of Europe. Regards from the kick-off @luke.fi

If you want to understand what's happening in European forests in terms of harvests, take a look at this! I’m so glad to finally have out our results quantifying harvest events from forest inventory data across 11 European countries. doi.org/10.1029/2024...

The first paper from Natheo Beauchamp's PhD explores how competition for light influences tree growth & survival of over a million trees across Europe, showing that the effect of light competition decreases in stressful climates. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
