Project description DEENESFRITPL Safeguarding forest ecosystems Forests ecosystems are central to human well-being, in addition to being critical habitats for biodiversity. These ecosystems are, however, exposed to environmental, economic and social pressures that are affecting their health and resilience. Contributing to this field, the EU-funded DecisionES project aims to boost research collaboration between eight European and 10 American organisations involved in the development and application of decision support approaches for the provision of ecosystem services. Building top-level multidisciplinary expertise in these organisations, the project will work towards the integration of operational, tactical and strategic forest ecosystem management planning methods and the supply of robust ecosystem services. Show the project objective Hide the project objective Objective Pressures on forest ecosystems are very likely to increase as a consequence of socioeconomic and demographic trends. A growing population will demand more products (e.g. wood) to be extracted from forest ecosystems. At the same time, these harvesting activities and their interactions with global change drivers will impact the sustainability of the supply of a wider range of non-provisioning services (e.g. wildfire protection, water, and biodiversity). The integrity of ecosystems must be safeguarded when developing harvesting activities, and yet this is further complicated by the occurrence of natural disturbances such as wildfires and droughts, etc. New decision support approaches are needed that can cope with this challenge. European and the American experiences with the development and application of decision support approaches for the provision of ecosystem services (ESs), offer a solid base for continued improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of forest management in the context of global change (e.g. responding to changes in demographics, socioeconomics, and climatic conditions). This provided the rationale for a project that will help to strengthen research collaboration through active networking and staff exchange between 8 European organizations and 10 American organizations that are leaders in these fields. This project will build from the top-level multidisciplinary expertise (wildfire ecology and management, wildfire behaviour simulation, hydrology, process-based modelling, biodiversity, wildlife management, ecology, water services, operations research, management science, stakeholder engagement, forest ecosystem management planning methods, supply chain management methods and decision support systems) in these organizations to address the integration of operational, tactical and strategic forest ecosystem management planning levels and potentiate the supply of ecosystem services at various spatial and temporal scales.
