Considerations for restoring temperate forests of tomorrow: forest restoration, assisted migration, and bioengineering (2015, background): “2010) and these changes are projected to have severe economic consequences (Hanewinkel et al. 2013).”
Responses of sapwood ray parenchyma and non‐structural carbohydrates of Pinus sylvestris to drought and long‐term irrigation (2017, background): “2015), with severe economic consequences (Hanewinkel et al. 2013).”
Climate change and European forests: what do we know, what are the uncertainties, and what are the implications for forest management? (2014, background): “Hanewinkel et al. (2013) studied associated gains (North) and losses (Central and Southern Europe) in forest economic value based on such projected decreases of the potential range of mesic, cold e adapted species like Norway spruce, and increases of drought e adapted species like Mediterranean…”
How much does climate change threaten European forest tree species distributions? (2018, background): “Therefore, economical losses may be higher than those predicted by Hanewinkel et al. (2013).”
The past ecology of Abies alba provides new perspectives on future responses of silver fir forests to global warming (2013, background): “In particular, European forest owners may use A. alba varieties to replace more drought-sensitive Picea abies and Fagus sylvatica instead of planting non-native species such as Pseudotsuga menziesii (Hanewinkel et al. 2013).”
How Sensitive Are Ecosystem Services in European Forest Landscapes to Silvicultural Treatment (2015, background): “Europe-wide forest growth and management scenarios including climate change usually take into account considerably longer time frames [4,5].”
Biodiversity redistribution under climate change: Impacts on ecosystems and human well-being (2017, positive): “Conversely, it is estimated that an average of 34% of European forest lands, currently coveredwith valuable timber trees, such as Norway spruce, will be suitable only for Mediterranean oak forest vegetation by 2100, resulting in much lower economic returns for forest owners and the timber industry (”
Leading the way to a European circular bioeconomy strategy (2017, methodology): “Here, we use the example of forestry, based on a study on the economic impacts of climate change on forests (Hanewinkel et al. 2013), but similar strategies should also apply to agriculture and fisheries.”
