FORGENIUS Public Webinars - First edition
Webinar #1 - 27 October 2023 (14:00 CEST)
The FORGENIUS project will host the first edition of its Public Webinars on 27 October at 14:00 CEST. The aim of this series of events is to bring FORGENIUS topics and results to a wider audience.
Project member Dr. Nicolas Martin will talk about the advances obtained by FORGENIUS on the potential role of intraspecific variability in drought resistance traits in shaping intraspecific drought resistance of tree species. Nicolas will also introduce the feature speaker Dr. Xavier Morin.
Dr. Morin will address how the impact of climate change varies across forests, depending on their composition, structure and age. He will also review the state-of-the-art regarding the tree diversity effects on forest functioning and properties, and present perspectives to better understand these tree diversity effects, including at the intraspecific level.
FORGENIUS is an H2020 project, funded by the EU that will give an insight into the diversity of European forests and their resilience to climate change.
