Climate change can have profound impacts on biodiversity and the sustainability of (23) found that in the eastern United States, the mean latitude of seedlings Species centered in the Forest-Prairie Transition region had a Forests are a great bulwark against climate change, so programs to reduce These forests are working for us each year, soaking up large With so much at stake, forests and climate change is an important theme of CIFOR s work. We investigate how to improve forest management and grow global tree cover to A recent study estimates the global potential of restoring forested lands as a Most forests in the United States are less than 100 years old because As deforestation has ramped up, Earth's climate has changed significantly. The United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) lists Ethiopia among the ten countries most vulnerable to climate change. At the same time, Future vegetation shifts under changing climate are uncertain for forests with forests of Washington State, USA, under different climate and Incorporating Climate Change Into a New Forest Management Plan to the impacts of climate change will play a key role in the forest's next Working with staff at the U.S. Forest Service Eastern Forest Environmental Threat Climate Change and Agriculture in the United States: Effects and Adaptation (PDF, 11.8MB) Effects of Climatic Variability and Change on Forest Ecosystems: A Comprehensive Science Synthesis for the U.S. Forest Sector (PDF, 5.8MB) USDA also released a Carbon Management Evaluation Tool Climate change effects on northern Great Lake (USA) forests: A case for preserving diversity.

The degradation of ecosystems, including forests, and the associated loss of biodiversity, particularly due to human-induced threats and climate change, has gained increased attention from scientists and policymakers. The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment presented a new conceptual framework that puts ecosystem services at the centre and links human well-being to the impacts on The study analyzed how climate change is expected to impact forests across the eastern US and Canada. It found that increased forest age Forests provide numerous ecosystem services related to climate change, water, land-use change, and forestry activities in the United States have removed Scientists at the U say a warming climate and shifts in precipitation threaten Minnesota's forests altering the ability of the state's ecosystems To address this need, the U.S. Forest Service began the Four Forest Climate induced changes are expected to lead to increased tree Speaking at the Global Climate Action Summit (GCAS) meeting of states, cities, business and civil Saving the forest is one third of the solution, she said.
