The SUPERB project, part of the EU’s Horizon programme, aims to restore thousands of hectares of forest landscape across Europe.
New research suggests the gut bacteria of red and grey squirrels differ significantly, potentially explaining the decline of the native red and the success of its grey counterpart.
Native trees have been found at new heights in the Scottish Highlands, demonstrating how mountain woodland could recover from deforestation – benefiting humans, wildlife and climate issues.
Despite declines of Australia woodland birds and ongoing conservation investment, we don’t have many studies that show exactly how effective different management actions are for these species.
Just 2.5% of the country has been continuously wooded for centuries.
A new study looked at the many claims made about soil fungi and found some misconceptions.
Atlantic rainforests once lined the island’s west coast – and could one day return.
Fruit bats have the potential to reforest areas where trees had been lost in parts of Africa.
Plant the right trees in the right places – with the right fungal companions.
The bill promises to prevent environmental damage and harm where possible, but what will this entail?
“Will it become a wood again, how long will it take, which species will be in it?”
Eating bird food was also linked to a nearly four-fold increase in their breeding densities.
Combining evidence from archaeology, geochronology and paleoenvironmental science, researchers identified how ancient humans by Lake Malawi were the first to substantially modify their environment.
Is the UK government missing the wood for the trees?
We counted the number of standard trees in Australia. It turns out that since 1990, we’ve actually been gaining trees faster than losing them.
New findings show how changes in land use have complex effects on animal and plant species.
The UK’s official climate advisor recommends up to 50,000 hectares of new woodland each year by 2050.
Restoring Britain’s woodlands and peatlands isn’t just a utopian dream.
The species which surround a tree in a forest make up the character of its neighbourhood. Good neighbours can make forests resilient to climate change.
