The main objective of this COST Action is to make
predictions of the future distribution range of beech forest ecosystems
under the assumption of certain scenarios of climate change based
on the analysis of the reaction pattern of European Beech populations
of defined origin (progenies of natural beech stands) under changed
climate situations in sets of pan European field trials.
Abstract
It is now established that impacts of anthropogenic
climate change on biota can be proven. The widely spread European
Beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) is an economically important tree species
which is due to its functional flexibility and genetic plasticity
well suitable to study the likely impacts of global change on European
forests. The main objective of this COST Action is to analyse the
reaction pattern of European Beech populations of defined origin
(progenies of natural beech stands) under changed climate situations
in sets of pan European field trials. It aims to make predictions
of the future distribution range of beech forest ecosystems under
the assumption of certain scenarios of climate change. The economic
dimension of the Action activities has been estimated at roughly
Euro 24 million based on the participation of 20 countries in the
preparation.
