  1. @DavidSD yes. Very interesting paper : #droughtstress and #barkbeetles caused in 2018-2020 a strong tree mortality and thus a widespread #ForestDisturbance across Central Europe. The authors observed post-disturbance regeneration in nearly 900 plots across 10 countries : the good news: recovery was robust. The bad news : 75% of the regenerating seedlings are projected to be **outside of their climatic niche** by the end of the century under even moderate #climatechange (RCP4.5)
    This suggests to me that "leaving forests alone" is not the best way to adapt them to #ClimateChange. There is just not sufficient local #Biodiversity
