N2 - This book includes the abstracts of the oral and poster presentation of the conference ‘Managing Forests to Promote Environmental Services’, 3-5 November 2015, Copenhagen. The conference is arranged by the Centre of Advanced Research on Environmental Services from Nordic Forest Ecosystems (CAR-ES II), funded by Nordic Forest Research (SNS) 2011-2015. This is an open network that brings together Nordic and Baltic forest researchers in order to provide scientific knowledge on the impacts of forest management on major
environmental services for decision making within the forestry sector and for policy development.
Amongst key environmental services provided by the Nordic and Baltic forests are carbon sequestration, water protection, biodiversity, and soil quality. All these environmental services are affected by various types of forest management, and knowledge on how the forest management can help maintain and enhance these services is crucial to sound decision making in the forest sector and in policy development. Such knowledge will support the forest management in adapting to new conditions in order to continue and increase the provisioning of valuable wood products and clean water, while at the same time
maintaining and restoring biological diversity and other environmental services from the forest ecosystem.
The overall aim of the conference is to focus on the interactions between the forest management and the forest’s environmental ecosystem services, present the state-of-the-art and identify knowledge gaps. As seen from the abstracts in this book, the contributing researchers will present research on the interaction
between forest management and environmental forest ecosystem services as a basis for making decisions about improved forest management in the future. Sessions focus on biodiversity, water protection, carbon sequestration, soil quality, and integrated studies addressing several environmental forest ecosystem services.
Key note presentations by Michael Scherer-Lorenzen (University of Freiburg, Germany) and Simon Smart (Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, United Kingdom) link forest management and environmental ecosystem services in a broader perspective, and overviews of ten years of CAR-ES integrated research on
carbon sequestration, water protection, biodiversity, and soil quality in the Nordic – Baltic are presented.
