Cork-oak landscapes, Production and Climate Change Policies

In this study, Terraprima analyses Cork-oak landscapes from a climate perspective to answer the following questions: 1 - "What are the main challenges from climate change in this Ecosystem?" 2 - “How do Cork-oak landscapes contribute to emissions and carbon sequestration?”.

To discuss forests and climate change, the focus is usually given to the actions of afforestation, carbon sequestration and/or deforestation. Although these are very important issues, the relationship of forests to climate is more complex and requires a more comprehensive analysis of the activities that cause emissions and carbon sequestration and the impacts that climate change itself have on the forests themselves.
