Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue includes contributions to the theme: “Forest and Climate Change Adaptation”. Research articles may focus on any aspect of the theme, including: i) methods to assess forest carbon stocks and dynamics; ii) climate change and carbon markets: challenges and opportunities for forest development; iii) climate vulnerability and adaptation; and iv) the components, role, and status of forest carbon projects. These topics were discussed in the Webinar, “Forest and Climate Change Adaptation” (21 March 2023), sponsored by the University of British Columbia and the Graduate Program in Forestry at the Federal University of Paraná, conducted by Prof. Dr. Carlos Roberto Sanquetta, Prof. Dr. Ana Paula Dalla Corte, Prof. Dr. Sheri Andrews-Key and Prof. Dr. Trevor Gareth Jones.
We would like to receive new insights on the proposed topics. All researchers are encouraged to participate in this Special Issue, not only the participants of the Webinar.
