Launch Event for our Decision Support Tool
The ForES project will be hosting our final stakeholder event for the launch of our Decision Support Tool developed for the management of forest ecosystem services. This event culminates our team’s work with Bayesian belief network modeling, stakeholder collaboration, and the assessment of ecosystem services at forest sites. Please share with other foresters, forest managers, and forest stakeholders that may be interested!
When: 19th March 2026, 10-1 pm
Where: Trinity Business School, Dublin
An Introduction to ForES
Forests provide timber but also support biodiversity and other public benefits. We map specific forest sites using a Natural Capital Accounting approach to quantify forestry stocks and the various flows of benefits.
By assessing the quantity, quality and location of forest stocks, we can determine the flows of commercial timber production and other benefits such as carbon sequestration, water retention, biodiversity and recreation.
​
Looking at different land management scenarios, we can co-develop tools for foresters to support robust and transparent management decision-making to enhance sustainability.
