  • The role of social, policy and economic forces in shaping forest restoration practices in Europe

    Open AccessMaitane Erdozain, Iciar Alberdi et al.ARTICLELand Use Policy2026References: 58

    Forest restoration in Europe has a complex history strongly influenced by various social, policy and economic factors. Understanding these influences is essential for shaping effective restoration strategies and avoiding past mistakes, particularly in light of meeting ambitious targets outlined in initiatives such as the EU Nature Restoration Regulation. Here we identify the key social, policy and economic drivers, barriers and enablers that have…

  • Key challenges in forest restoration and adaptation in Spain: Expert-based solutions for a resilient future

    Open AccessMaitane Erdozain, Aitor Àvila Callau et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Science & Policy2025References: 6

    The growing momentum for ecological restoration presents a critical opportunity to tackle environmental crises, especially in the context of climate change adaptation. With the newly adopted European Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR) requiring Member States to develop national restoration plans, Spain stands as a paradigmatic case due to its long history of restoration efforts and its location in the Mediterranean, a recognized climate change h…

  • Current constraints to reconcile tropical forest restoration and bioeconomy

    Open AccessPedro Medrado Krainovic, Diego Oliveira Brandão et al.ARTICLESustainability Science2024Cited by: 1

    Large-scale forest restoration is vital for delivering a broad array of ecosystem services benefits to society. However, it is often perceived as an economically noncompetitive land use choice. Integrating economic opportunities into restoration aligns socioeconomic and environmental goals, reducing conflicts between forest production and conservation-oriented management decisions. Supply chains focusing on high-value goods can enhance the reach …

  • Implementing Deep Learning algorithms for urban tree detection and geolocation with high-resolution aerial, satellite, and ground-level images

    Open AccessLuisa Velasquez-Camacho, Maddi Etxegarai et al.ARTICLEComputers Environment and Urban…2023

    Urban forests are becoming increasingly important for human well-being as they provide ecosystem services that contribute to improving well-being of city dwellers and to addressing climate change. However, despite their importance, there is an information gap in most of the world's urban forests due to the high cost and complexity of conducting standard forest inventories in urban environments. New technologies based on artificial intelligence ca…

  • Recent deforestation drove the spike in Amazonian fires

    Open AccessAdrián Cardíl, Sergio De‐miguel et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2020

    Tropical forests are of global importance even though they only cover around 10% of the Earth's land surface. They store large amounts of carbon and host between one-half and two-thirds of the world's species (Lewis 2006). Small changes in the tropical moist forest—the most biodiverse biome within the tropical forests—may lead to global impacts on climate dynamics and warming, water cycles, and the loss of biodiversity. If the current rates of de…

  • La repoblación forestal en España: Las especies utilizadas desde 1877 a partir de las cartografías forestales

    Open AccessEnric Vadell Giral, Sergio De‐miguel et al.ARTICLEHistoria Agraria Revista de…2018Cited by: 1

    The modern reforestation of Spain began in the second half of the nineteenth century. The aim of this study is to analyze the tree species involved and the three different historical stages that occurred between 1877 and 2013. This analysis is based on the official statistical series and national forest maps (NFMs) published in 1966 and 1997. Using NFMs, the estimated total reforested area was found to be, respectively, 33 and 18% higher than the…

  • Large-scale reforestation and afforestation policy in Spain: A historical review of its underlying ecological, socioeconomic and political dynamics

    Open AccessEnric Vadell, Sergio De‐miguel et al.ARTICLELand Use Policy2016

    Spain had not more than six million hectares of woodlands in the mid-19th century. Nowadays woodlands cover more than sixteen million hectares. During the last one hundred and fifty years, much effort was devoted to improving forest cover and, as a result, five million hectares were artificially regenerated, which represents ten percent of the whole country area. All this work required large nursery infrastructures, thousands of workers and high …
