The latest in our Climate Change Factsheet series have been published today, Wednesday 9th February.
Aimed at practitioners, the factsheets showcase the breadth of research carried out by Forest Research, sometimes over decades, demonstrating how trees and forests are facing the challenges of climate change, and offering actionable insights into how trees and woodlands can help mitigate the effects of climate change.
These next four factsheets cover adaptation, urban forests and the effects of climate change on the impact of Canker and Phytophthora. The factsheets can be viewed and downloaded from the links below:
Climate change and tree diseases (Canker) – Forest Research
Climate change and tree diseases (Phytophthora) – Forest Research

There are now 12 factsheets in the series, and they can be viewed on this website.
Woodland owners and managers are being asked to take part in a new research project to monitor the health of oak trees across the UK.
Survey of 7,000 people conducted to find out about the public’s awareness and understanding of biosecurity and plant and tree health in the UK.
Planting woodland adjacent to established woodland or in large clumps is more likely to boost bird populations than random planting, modelling suggests.
