The Meaning of Climate-Smart Forestry – A Narrative Literature Review

News release

Climate-smart forestry (CSF) is gaining attention as forests are increasingly expected to support climate action while remaining resilient, biodiverse, and socially relevant.

Swiss Forests Under Pressure: Declining Growth Across All Altitudes

News release

– 14-05-2026

Forests play a crucial role in absorbing CO₂ from the atmosphere — but this capacity cannot be taken for granted. A new study published in Functional Ecology (Etzold et al., 2026) draws on 30 years of continuous forest monitoring at 18 sites across Switzerland, spanning elevations from lowland forests at 500 m up to mountain forests near the treeline at almost 1,900 m. The result is one of the most comprehensive long-term assessments of how climate change is affecting forest growth in Central Europe.
