Forests regulate the global climate, support biodiversity, and sustain ecosystem services, but remain threatened by the impacts of climate change. Changing temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and extreme events interact with ecological processes to influence forest health and stability. By examining the dynamics of forest ecosystems, the disturbances they face, like wildfires, pests, droughts, and storms, and their capacity for resilience and recovery, researchers can identify areas most at risk and inform adaptive management strategies. This field integrates ecological data, climate projections, and risk assessment frameworks to guide policies and practices that enhance forest resilience in a changing environment. Forest Vulnerability and Climate Risk Assessment: Dynamics, Disturbances, and Resilience explores how climate change influences forest ecosystems by affecting their structure, function, and susceptibility. It examines the dynamics of forest vulnerability and resilience to assess climate-related risks and to inform strategies for sustainable forest management and ecosystem adaptation. This book covers topics such as forest ecosystems, soil erosion modeling, and watershed management, and is a useful resource for engineers, academicians, researchers, and environmental scientists.
