The Climate Change Hub brings together information and practical guidance about protecting our UK woodlands and forests from the impacts and risks due to the changing climate through adaptive practice. It aims to provide straightforward, practical support particularly for landowners, woodland managers and forestry practitioners.
A suite of new content is already in the pipeline and we would like you to help shape our future plans. Forest Research wants to understand the Climate Change Hub’s impact to date and help ensure it meets your needs as we continue to develop climate change guidance.
Do you use the Climate Change Hub? Have you told others about the Climate Change Hub? Do you use information on the Climate Change Hub to craft your forestry advice? Do you have a particular interest in the Climate Change Hub?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, please read on!

A new study, led by Forest Research, has been published which looks at whether Ips typographus would select Sitka spruce, compared to Norway spruce, as a host for breeding, and for the first time, reviews the chemical ecology behind these choices.
Forest Research are looking for private woodland or forest managers to participate in a research project. We’re investigating how the risk of climate change is perceived and the extent to which adaptation measures are built into management plans.
Forest Research is leading Defra’s NCEA programme, measuring, mapping and assessing England’s ecosystems and natural capital to inform environmental policy and sustainability.
