Home tool-and-resource Forestry and tree health resources Resources on managing resilient forests Research forests and experiments

Our team manage a number of research forests and experiments throughout Britain. The main aim of these forests and experiments is to examine alternative methods of managing forests and collect scientific data to test hypotheses and to calibrate and validate models.

Information on two of our main research forests:

Clocaenog
Glentress

For further information on either of the above experiments, please contact Gary Kerr or Victoria Stokes.

The contribution of Forestry Commission and the Scottish Forestry Trust is acknowledged in the establishment and monitoring of these experiments.
