In this SUPERB/IUFRO Forest Restoration Talk, we investigate the nexus between forest restoration and water.
Considering the options and limitations of forest restoration from the perspective of water cycling has become critical, especially in dry regions of the world. We need to transform traditional approaches to restoration by taking into account water resource limitations, the impacts of forestry practices on water resources, and the optimisation of multiple forest functions and services.
Using afforestation in the Loess Plateau, China, as a regional example, this webinar discusses the topic with two speakers from IUFRO’s Transforming Forest Landscapes Task Force:
• Yanhui Wang, Ecology and Nature Conservation Institute, Chinese Academy of Forestry
• Zhang Mingfang, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China
