TL;DR: In this paper, the authors classified agroforestry into three main types of agro-forestry systems: arable, livestock and high-value tree agrofronteries.

TL;DR: This study shows that, in most cases, including disturbances in the simulations exaggerate ongoing productivity declines or cancel out productivity gains in response to climate change, so it is necessary to interpret climate change-induced productivity and disturbance changes jointly to capture the full range of climate change impacts on forests and to plan adaptation measures.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the structure, components and management practices of ten contrasting high nature and cultural value (HNCV) agroforestry systems distributed across five European bioclimatic regions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated how stakeholders and key actors including farmers, landowners, agricultural advisors, researchers and environmentalists perceive the implementation and expansion of agroforestry in Europe, and found that improving the environmental value of agriculture was seen as the main benefit of agriculture, whilst management and socioeconomic issues were the greatest barriers.

TL;DR: In this article, a generalized height-diameter model for Quercus suber L. in Portugal was developed, which can be applied both to undebarked and debarked trees, with diameter at breast height over cork larger than 2.5 cm.
