Two postdoctoral researchers and/or doctoral researcher, Future Forests
Current climate change scenarios estimate the growth zones to shift approximately 80 km northwards in a decade, and the speed is likely to accelerate towards the end of the century. On the other hand, forest trees take decades to mature, meaning that the seedlings begin their growth in a different kind of environment compared to the one they face as adults. How will the current forest tree populations survive in the future climate?
