\n

The project focuses on the implementation of multiple actions aimed at improving the conservation\u00a0state of Black Pine forests in the medium and long term within the Catalan Natura 2000 network. The\u00a0actions address in an integrated way the main problems and threats that this habitat, currently in a\u00a0degradation and regression process, is facing: destabilized structures with no regeneration capacity,\u00a0undiversified and strongly exposed to future fires, because of the intense exploitation of the past, the\u00a0abandonment of the management and the effect of large forest fires, in a context of drastic global\u00a0changes.<\/p>\n

The singularity of the conservation actions proposed brings a clear demonstration dimension to the\u00a0project area regarding the sustainable and multifunctional forest management that will be up-scaled to\u00a0the whole range, in the Iberian Peninsula, of this habitat of priority community interest.<\/p>\n

Life PINASSA will undertake actions in 10 Sites of Community Interest (SCI), some of which cover the\u00a0major part of the distribution of this habitat in the Catalan Natura 2000 network.<\/p>\n

The specific objectives\u00a0are:<\/h3>\n

– To protect the few unique stands of exceptional cultural and biological characteristics present in the\u00a0distribution area of Black Pine, improve habitat\u2019s stability, regeneration and biodiversity, and reduce its\u00a0vulnerability to fires.<\/p>\n

– To significantly improve the biodiversity of young, dense and simply structured Black Pine forests, the\u00a0regeneration of heavily exploited ones or of those intensively affected by large fires.<\/p>\n

– To increase the resistance and resilience (capacity of self-defence and recovery) of Black Pine forests\u00a0to both large fires and climate change.<\/p>\n

– To generate and transfer planning and management tools to managers and owners, to make\u00a0compatible the conservation of Black Pine forests with their productive and recreational functions.<\/p>\n

– To contribute to the resolution of conflicts between the different functions of Black Pine forests:\u00a0ecological, economic and social.<\/p>\n

– To disseminate information about the Natura 2000 network, environmental values, and the\u00a0sustainable management of forests to the general public.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
