Building synergies among ground-based forest inventorying and monitoring networks to meet scientific, political and societal needs
Ground-based Inventorying and Monitoring programs are crucial for documenting long-term forest responses to global change pressures, though there is limited coordination among them. We call for building synergies between different Inventorying and Monitoring programs, as well as community science and stakeholder engagement, to expand the temporal and spatial scale of forest monitoring and better integrate ground-based monitoring, remote sensing and modelling for timely detection of changes in forest conditions and functioning. This will be beneficial for the Proposal for a Monitoring Framework for Resilient European Forests and other not forestry-related European Union policies and strategies.
