Descrizione e Attività
Descrizione Generale
The LIFE MOTTLES project aims to define scientifically-based thresholds and critical levels for the protection of forests from O3 in the changing climate scenario. To do this, an innovative integrated monitoring station system for the continuous measurement of parameters affecting European forest ecosystems sustainability will be set up and tested across three European countries. This will support the elaboration of recommendations and adaptive management strategies for sustainable forest management and stimulate the development of usable legislative standards for protecting forests against O3.
The project will address the 2015 EU policy priorities (2020 Biodiversity Strategy and 2013 Forest Strategy), by anticipating the adverse effects of climate change and taking appropriate measures to prevent associated damage. Furthermore, as there is a demand for tools supporting the assessment of impacts of policies both at EU and national level, LIFE MOTTLES will facilitate the development of science-based strategies for policy-makers and managers to enable the protection of forests against O3 and climate change. This will serve as a decision-support tool for national and EU authorities.
