Climate Change and Forest Environment (2nd Edition)

Dear Colleagues,

Over the past decade, a growing number of studies have focused on the relationship between forests, the environment, and the climate, especially in terms of integrated ecological systems. During this timeframe, environmental datasets have come to allow for the evaluation of the effects of space, weather, and atmospheric conditions on forest environments. In additionto this, deep investigations of the relationships between different climatic conditions and the function of different forest environments have provided the elementary basics for proper forest management. This, in turn, fosters the emergence of new knowledge on the effects of forests on climate and the environment.

The aim of this Special Issue is to showcase new investigations of the associations between the weather, climate, and various aspects of the forest environment. The main topics will include: (1) the impact of weather factors and climatic conditions on forests; (2) the associations between weather, climate, and forests; (3) the complex effects of environmental phenomena (e.g., air temperature, atmospheric pressure, seasonality, air quality, air pollution, and teleconnection patterns) on forest management and evaluation; (4) the beneficial effects of forests on the environment and atmospheric conditions; and (5) analyses of the economics of forest management and policy assessment under the trend of climate change.

We look forward to your submissions for publication in this Special Issue. All manuscripts will be sent to anonymous reviewers as part of the standard peer review procedure of Atmosphere. This Special Issue is a follow-up of the first volume, etitled “Climate Change and Forest Environment”. (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/atmosphere/special_issues/climate_forest_environment).
