A major paper presents policy-relevant findings to support multiple forest ecosystem services in Europe. The paper provides ideas on how future European forest governance could align FES demand and supply in the light of three challenges: climate change adaptation; biodiversity crisis; and the need to move towards a sustainable bioeconomy.
This paper assessed the state and prospects of forest ecosystem services provision in Europe, introducing new data from three European collaborative research projects including SINCERE.
