Editorial: The contribution of managed forestry and the driving variables in climate change mitigation and adaptation.

The editorial discusses the role of managed forestry in climate change mitigation and adaptation, emphasizing the importance of forests in sequestering carbon and regulating water cycles. Managed forests can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase resilience to climate change through practices like reforestation and improved silvicultural techniques. However, challenges such as quantifying carbon sequestration and ensuring economic viability remain. The article suggests further research and innovation, including advanced modeling tools and exploring forest-based products, to enhance the effectiveness of managed forestry in addressing climate change.
