Effects of Climate Change on Forests: An Evidence-Based Primer for Sustainable Management of Temperate and Mediterranean Forests presents concepts, case studies and application techniques for theories on forest management under climate change. Readers will gain an understanding on how forest planning and management ties into the ecological functioning and resilience of forests by following variability in growth (or other processes) over time, a concept weakly implemented in traditional forest planning. This shift in focus has significant benefits, not only in better incorporating the services provided by forests, but also in opening up better adaptation planning. Outlines innovative tools to evaluate and assess forest management plansProvides guidelines and criteria for forest planning, sustainability and management techniques for adapting to climate changeHelps the reader develop comprehensive forest management plans- complete with sylvicultural interventions-which account for uncertainties in climate changeTies directly into A for Climate project from the EU Commission as part of Horizon 2020
