Chapter 3 - Prospects for Harmonized Biodiversity Assessments using National Forest Inventory data
Original language description
The selected biodiversity variables were evaluated as both important and feasible for assessment by NFIs and grouping them into assential features, additional information was solicited regarding the degree to which the 13 variables are currently assessedby NFIs. The objective was to evaluate the prospects for harmonized estimates of biodiversity indicators based on these variables. The evaluations produced positive harmonization possibilities for forest categories and the tree height and diameter variables associated with forest structure. However, possibilities for construction of a common reference definition and bridges to compansate for the differences in estimates resulting from using national and reference definitions were deemed positive. Prospects for regeneration, ground vegetation, and naturalness were less positive. Thus efforts at harmonization for these essential features were constrained to a few variables or a few countries with similar NFI features.
