In a recent article, "The stand against climate change", in International Innovation, Northeast Climate Science Center (NE CSC) Principal Investigator Anthony D’Amato explains his investigations of land use and weather impacts on North American temperate forests. His findings will help establish evidence-based management strategies to cope with climate change and invasive species. Effectively managing forests against a context of climate change is a complex task. Researchers, including D'Amato and scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey, University of Maine, and the U.S. Forest Service, are analyzing historical and current empirical records to explore adaptation and mitigation approaches for effective forest management in a warming [...]
