Climate actions

Emphasize drought- and heat-tolerant species and populations

Objective

Preserve species.

Description

An example of an adaptation measure under this approach is to favour or establish oak species on narrow ridge tops, south-facing slopes with shallow soils, or other sites that are expected to become warmer and drier. Another example is to seed or plant drought-resistant genotypes of commercial species where there is an expectation of increased drought stress.

Expected results

Resistance of certain species and population

Result indicators

Number of tolerant species
