Sweden's 'old‑growth' natural forests store 83% more carbon than managed woodlands—new study
Most of Europe's original natural forests have been transformed for agriculture and managed forests producing energy, paper, and timber. The few remaining "old-growth" natural forests are relics of the past that illustrate how forests would have looked in the absence of human management. They can, therefore, tell us how people have transformed forests.

Fast-growing trees are taking over the forests of the future and putting biodiversity, climate resilience under pressure
Trees play a central role in life on Earth. They store CO₂, provide habitats for animals, fungi, and insects, stabilize soils, regulate water cycles, and supply resources that humans rely on—from timber and food to recreation and shade on a hot day.

Widely used method underestimates forests' ability to prevent major floods, researchers argue https://phys.org/news/2026-02-widely-method-underestimates-forests-ability.html

Widely used method underestimates forests' ability to prevent major floods, researchers argue
Researchers from the University of British Columbia argue that a widely used method to understand and predict flood risk has led scientists to miscalculate how forests can prevent major flooding. The paper, published in Ambio, synthesizes decades of research to explain why the standard approach used to evaluate how forests impact flooding—comparing individual flood peaks before and after disturbance—fails to capture how floods actually develop.
