Climate Change Adaptive Forestry Network (SILVADAPTNET)

Location: Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Agronómica y del Medio Natural (ETSIAMN), Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (UPV) Camí de Vera, s/n, 46022 Valencia, Valencia

Description

The Network was created as a means to unify the results obtained by different research groups, attempting to provide clear answers about the disturbances and problems associated with climate change , and thus help in the generation of new criteria for managing the forest .

The fundamental objective is the integration of different research groups in adaptive silviculture to climate change , contributing with knowledge, methodologies and active experimental sites, for the development of an eco-hydrologically based adaptive forest management framework generalizable to the entire peninsular territory.

The Silvadapt.net Network has a total of 34 plots for monitoring natural stands and silviculture in the face of climate change, distributed among the main phytoclimatic types present in Spain, as well as a representation of the most characteristic stand types of our natural environment.
