Publications

The following documents were provided on the RISKPlatform. This involves

  • Overview publication on forest risks, risk mitigation, risk management and resilience in Europe: This publication shows how forest resilience and risk mitigation/risk management are linked to each other, and highlights practical access points for improving both resilience and risk management in forests in general, as a basis for the work of the Forest Risk Facility.
  • Forest Risk Facility Working Papers: Three working papers were compiled as a basis for the thematic workshops on droughts and forest fires, storms and biotic threats. They identify key points for action specifically relating to the three forest risk complexes.
  • Scientific article: L. Nikinmaa, M. Lindner, E. Cantarello, A. S. Jump, R. Seidl, G. Winkel & B. Muys (2020) "Enhancing resilience to address challenges in forest management" provides a systematic review of the recent forest science literature on resilience in the forestry context, synthesizing how resilience is defined and assessed.
