Description

Has description EFISCEN is a forest resource projection model. It is used to gain insight into the future development of European forests for issues such as:
  sustainable management regimes;
  wood production possibilities;
  nature oriented management;
  climate change impacts
  natural disturbances; and
  carbon balance issues.

Through its underlying detailed forest inventory database, the projections provide these insights at varying scales, thus serving forest managers and policy makers at the national and international levels.

Since 1996, EFISCEN has been jointly developed and applied at Alterra and EFI.

Has modelling scope Forest indicators, Ecological indicators, Climate change
Has temporal scale Long term (strategic), Medium term (tactical)
Has spatial context Spatial with no neighbourhood interrelations
Has spatial scale Regional/national level
Has objectives dimension Multiple objectives, Single objective
Has related DSS
Has goods and services dimension Market wood products, Non-market services
Has decision making dimension More than one decision maker/stakeholder
Has forest management goal biodiversity evaluation, biomass estimation, carbon sequestration, climate change impact, forest inventory, yield prediction, wood supply planning
Supports tree species user defined
Supports silvicultural regime even-aged

Concrete application

Has typical use case building projections on forest developement under different scenarios of environment/management
Has user profile service providers
Has country Anguilla, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom
