Mercredi 4 mai 2022, 14h00-16h00, MSH Val de Loire salle polyvalente (et visio)
Organisé par l’équipe du projet « Plantaclim », à l’occasion de la venue de Tran Huu Nghi (directeur de Tropenbos Vietnam).
Plantaclim (Maximizing the services of forest plantations in the context of climate change) is an interdisciplinary project, funded by the French region Centre-Val de Loire and led by CITERES research center (Sylvie Servain and Amélie Robert).
The aim is to identify the services provided by forest plantations (pine and poplar) and propose solutions to maximize them in the context of climate change.
The research includes:
- soil analyses, vegetation (lichen, mosses and vascular plants) surveys and insect surveys – supporting services –
- identification of economic benefits (state of the sector) – provisioning services –
- analysis of the cultural dimension (leisure activities, representations) – cultural services.
Forest plantations have advantages but also disadvantages, being a source of disservices. The project team believes that they will play an increasing role in the future (being particularly encouraged in the context of global change). It is therefore important to think about solutions that allow maximizing their services.
