This work in undertaken through our independent think-tank Forestry Horizons. The website for Forestry Horizons attracts up to 1000 unique visits every month.

Forestry Horizons
the independent forestry think-tank

Our main science project is our think-tank initiative Forestry Horizons. We aim to support sustainable forest management by undertaking strategic and applied research.

Forestry Horizons has become very active as our independent perspective becomes valued. Commissioned research reports have been produced for public and private bodies, in the UK and beyond. Papers and articles have been published in the forestry press and presentations given to various stakeholders in the UK and beyond.  Forestry Horizons is linked with the Global Forest Information Service.

Some of our recent work:
  • Forest management and silvicultural reponses to project climate change (a peer-reviewed publication)
  • Growing valuable broadleaved species (EU COST Action E42)
  • Top ten questions for forestry (T10Q)
  • Carbon lean UK (ICF Conference Proceedings)
