FOREWORD
This document summarises the work that has been achieved after 5 years of efforts to set up the REINFFORCE infrastructure. It has been a huge challenge to move from the simple idea of designing a research tool for climate change adaptation to the actual implementation of this tool: to agree on protocols, find seeds, produce 150 000 seedlings, design demonstration sites and set up databases.
I would like to thank all those who contributed to making this idea become a reality, which not only requested the necessary funding, but also a lot of patience and passion.
This document does not describe the end of a story but rather the beginning of one. Thanks to INTERREG IVB EA funds, a unique research tool has been designed to work on forest adaptation to climate change. In this catalogue, you will find all useful information concerning the design and content of the 79 trials that are part of this infrastructure; information to understand the data collected, the species planted, the effects observed.
You are welcome to contact the coordinator or trial managers directly for questions on some results or to propose collaboration on a specific species or a specific issue that has been addressed thanks to this infrastructure.
