This project aims to make better use of existing data on timber and related topics to improve the evidence base on current use and future availability of timber.

The NCEA TOW map will be used to characterise the setting, distribution and density of TOW features across England and explore the implications of regional variations for key habitats, biodiversity and carbon sequestration.

PEATFLUX+ will provide essential GHG balance quantification for forest-to-bog conversion, allowing the 2nd year of GHG flux measurements for model calibration, LCA analysis, and adding important new evidence on hydrology and soil biodiversity.

To finalise and deliver Version 1 of the Woodland Water Code, providing a standardised methodology for the quantification and verification of water quality, flood alleviation and water shading benefits from woodland creation by March 2026.

This project aims to identify future temperate rainforest zones and understand species colonisation through modelling and field data collection, to support the expansion and resilience of TRFs in the UK under climate change.

LERN aims to enhance understanding of nature recovery by establishing a national network of experimental woodland creation sites to provide robust evidence supporting policy and practice.

A natural capital approach to inform tree planting at Blenheim Palace.

Agroforestry, the integration of managed trees and agriculture, will help meet national tree planting commitments and provide social, environmental and economic benefits. This project will develop and test a monitoring and evaluation framework for agroforestry agri-environment schemes to measure scheme outcomes and improve future offers.

Catchment Lab aims to establish the UK's first catchment laboratories network to assess woodland creation's water impacts. It will provide critical data, refine models, foster partnerships, and expand a monitoring network to inform Defra’s water policies.

Project exploring the ecological function of Trees outside Woodland (ToW), using detailed mapping and biodiversity investigations.

Project exploring the movement of species between woodlands, and how to fast-track connectivity within fragmented landscapes.

Project measuring the soil carbon changes in the first 2 to 20 years of forest establishment of Woodland Carbon Code (WCC) sites.
