|Description=Forest resources projection model
+
|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.
