We are focused on: the use and development of new technologies for carrying out forest inventories; and the development of forest ecosystem models, optimization methods, and systems to support decision-making. This includes the development of innovative methods and tools that can address the complexity of multi-objective landscape and biodiversity conservation planning within the context of climate change and other risks such as forest fires.
Our ultimate aim is to develop scientifically sound methods that can be used by public administrations, forest owners, industry, and non-governmental organizations to improve the integration of adaptive strategies in landscape management planning and to improve existing policies.
