  3. Overview 2009 • Growth • Balancing topics between HQ & RO’s • Research for science based policy making

  4. Location and severity of storm damage ‘Storms’ project for DG ENV coordinated by EFIATLANTIC

  5. Forest industries value added change under FLEGT (2016-2020) Value added change (%) Study on Measures to Prevent the Import of Illegally Harvested Timber for DG ENV

  6. Will European forests’ sink strength decline? Sink (Mt CO2) Related to wood supply, biomass for bioenergy issues UNFCC (EC 2010) Related projects by Verkerk, Lindner et al.

  7. Facing Climate Change Impacts Increased growth rates in the North Higher risk of storm and insect damages Shifting species suitability More intense and frequent forest fires Study for DG AGRI on Impacts of Climate Change on European Forests FP7 project ‘Motive’

  8. Sustainability in a wider frame Sami Protection Northern-Tosia project Wood chips Recreation

  9. Fire Paradox • Scientific analysis delivered insights into integrated use of fire. • This resulted in direct advise towards a Fire Framework Directive • (Rego et al.)

  10. Capacity building (FOPER & AGORA) • AGORA builds new forest research capacities in Tunisia and Morocco (EFIMED) • FOPER builds education and research capacity in the Balkan (Shannon et al. (HQ & EFISEE))

  11. Improving the science-policy interface Science policy interface Mediterranean: a challenging balance • drought impacts • tourism • water & forest • mushroom vs wood • - Mediterranean Forest Week 11 20.8.2004
