All…

"Drought affects forests from the boreal to the tropics and is increasingly becoming a major concern for successfully establishing new trees through reforestation and afforestation as water limitations are the new normal. Ensuring success of new regeneration is critical for meeting forestry objectives, yet many of the areas committed to management are or have experienced recent droughts hindering regeneration and threatening forest sustainability. The inaugural International Union of Forest…
