Resilient Mediterranean Forests: improving ecosystem services and sustainable management – FINAL PROJECT EVENT
After almost five years of experience from the ground, the LIFE RESILIENT FORESTS project comes to an end. For this reason, we are inviting you to the final project event, taking place in Valencia on the 22nd of March 2023, at the premises of the Universidad...
Resilient Forests featured on Spanish TV
On the 22nd of June 2020 the local spanish TV "A Punt" broadcasted a press report on the biomass management in the Municipality of Serra. The LIFE Resilient Forests project was mentioned during the service as a positive initiative building up on the "Serra model"....
Webinar on «Innovative solutions for forest management»: video and presentations
On the 27th May 2020, the LIFE project Resilient Forests has organized an online webinar to present before a wide audience the first encouraging project results and show how the DSS tool "C.A.F.E." works. The full viedo of the webinar can be retrieved here, we...
The benefits of sustainable forestry for rural communities – Episode 9
On our way back to Valencia we visit the town of Serra, a success story and a case study of the benefits of adopting a sustainable forest management system for rural communities.
Forests and wildfire risks in Portugal
In this video RESILIENT FORESTS partner Miguel Almeida (ADAI) explains the importance of sustainable forest management for reducing risks of wildfires
Forests water and climate change in Germany
In this video, RESILIENT FORESTS partner Harrie-Jan Hendricks Franssen explains why this project is important for Germany and for Central Europe, whose forests are being increasingly impacted by the negative effects of climate change.
The transpiration of groundwater by forests in semiarid regions should be factored in by hydrogelogical models
The transpiration of groundwater resources is a fundamental aspect to be considered in hydrological modelling, in order to obtain an accurate representation of the availability of water resources in a watershed and to improve our knowledge of the hydrological cycle.
Eco-hydrologic forest management improves soil conservation in semiarid regions
Sustainable forest management enhances soil conservation and increases the availability of groundwaters of forests located in semi-arid regions.
IPCC study highlights the role of sustainable forest management for climate adaptation
The IPCC report released last August confirms that ustainable forest management can contribute to climate adaptation and reverse the impacts of climate change on land egradation
Adapting local solutions to global challenges – Episode 8
Antonio and Maria talk about the initial results of the project and how these can be transferred from local to a wider scale in the Mediterranean areas and in Central Europe.

Restoring Tree Growth – Episode 7
At the experimental plots we can clearly see the difference between an unmanaged forest originated 27 years ago after a wildfire and a stand of managed forest.
Visiting the Experimental Forest Plots – Episode 6
At this experimental site inside researchers are measuring the amount of water available to feed the trees in a manged forest plot, versus an unmanaged one.
Declining Tree Circles – Episode 5
Thanks to the analysis of the tree-trunk-slice it is possible to observe the real growth of the trees.
