How can we make UK woodlands resilient to climate change & pests/diseases? The DiversiTree project, part of UK Treescapes, explored key questions around stakeholder involvement, leaf microbes and pests, biodiversity support, & practical implementation.
Diversifying our woodlands
The UK government plans to increase woodland cover as part of its plans to store more carbon, to mitigate climate change. However, many of the UK’s trees are...

All datasets are structured like real research data and work with standard R tools (e.g., #ape, #phytools, #diversitree).

Very pleased to lead a practitioner workshop, with Chris Watson, at Coombs Wood, Cumbria for the DiversiTree research project. The theme was continuous cover forestry (CCF) - opportunities and challenges. Thanks to everyone who took part and contributed to the lively discussions.
