Type

Thematic: Climate

Description

Carbon storage and higher biodiversity through Continuous Cover Forestry (CCF).

Rationale

Converting forestry from clear-fell to 'close to nature' has positive impact on tree health, soil, biodiversity and recreational value. More so, forests under CCF store more carbon helping to mitigate climate change. The SLM SILVA project is tracking CCF success in an EU-funded research study.
