Forestry Facing the Future: A 50-Year Horizon Scan
Chaired by lead author, Dr Eleanor Tew MICFor, this webinar in the Forestry Facing the Future series will examine and discuss the sector response to two of the 15 issues outlined in the paper ‘A horizon scan of issues affecting UK forest management within 50 years.’
- Issue 6: eDNA revolutionizes our understanding of forest ecosystems
- Issue 15: International commitments will spotlight ecosystem integrity and drive monitoring efforts
eDNA has the potential to transform our understanding of how forest management affects ecological functioning and resilience.
Can this technology help us understand and report on commitments under the Global Biodiversity Framework agreed at COP15?
