In this book authors analyzed transnational case studies dealing with different manifestations of climate change effects, and intended to stimulate the discussion on management strategies to adapt forests in the Alps to climate change risks.
The presented results are derived from the INTERREG project “Management Strategies to Adapt Alpine Space Forests to Climate Change Risks” that was implemented within the framework of the European Territorial Cooperation “Alpine Space Programme 2007-2013.
