Unveiling the Secrets of European Forests: A Database to Span Over a Decade
A new database is providing a detailed look into the history of European forests for the past three centuries. The database is a joint project of the European Forest Institute, the University of Helsinki, and the University of Eastern Finland. The database contains information on forest area, tree species, and forest management practices from 16 European countries. It is the most comprehensive database of its kind and will be an invaluable tool for scientists and policy makers alike. With this database, researchers and decision makers will gain a better understanding of how forests have been managed and the effects of forest management on the environment. The implications of this database are far-reaching, as it will help inform forest conservation and management strategies for the future.
