This paper showed that under forecasted changes in temperature and precipitation, there could be a decline of economically valuable species, which would lead to a loss in the value of European forest land.
Abstract
European forests are threatened by climate change with impacts on the distribution of tree species. Previous discussions on the consequences of biome shifts have concentrated only on ecological issues; however, research now shows that under forecasted changes in temperature and precipitation there could be a decline of economically valuable species, which would lead to a loss in the value of European forest land.

Field Observations of Canopy Flows over Complex Terrain

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an observational dataset of airflow measurements inside and above a forest situated on a ridge on the Isle of Arran, Scotland, and compare with recent idealized two-dimensional modelling studies.

Possible changes in spatial distribution of walnut (Juglans regia L.) in Europe under warming climate

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the MaxEnt algorithm to predict the future climatic optimum of Juglans regia in Europe under changing climate, to assess the most important climatic factors that determine its potential distribution, and to compare the results obtained among three different global circulation models (GCMs).

Economics of species change subject to risk of climate change and increasing information: a (quasi-)option value analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an economic analysis of timber species change as a tool for adapting forests to climate change using the framework of cost-benefit analysis, taking uncertainty into account both exogenously (sensitivity analysis) and endogenously [(quasi-option value calculations].

Future forest landscapes of the Carpathians: vegetation and carbon dynamics under climate change

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the effects of changing climate and disturbance regimes on the spatial dynamics of the dominant tree species and forest types and the trajectories of the associated aboveground live carbon.
