Forest Resilience, Biodiversity, and Climate Change. A synthesis of the Biodiversity/Resilience/stability Relationship in Forest Ecosystems

This publication explores the links between biodiversity, forest ecosystem resilience, and climate change. Its findings are relevant for the future implementation of the CBD, but also the UNFCCC, the Forest Instrument of the United Nations Forum on Forests (UNFF), and other international and regional forest-related agreements. It provides a compelling rationale for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity in any forest-based climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts.
