虽然可持续森林管理的政策进程已得到很好的发展，但在实地的执行仍然是一个挑战。鉴于欧洲大陆的生物物理条件、经济历史和治理制度的多样性，社会和生态系统都需要适应区域和时间的适应性解决办法。为了说明这一点，我们应用（1）传记森林和林地历史的方法，瑞典中部的Bergslagen地区，北方持续生产林业被广泛应用的第一和（2）比较案例研究的方法，使用五个欧洲景观，代表不同的森林历史阶段在苏格兰，德国，乌克兰和俄罗斯。此外，我们说明了需要学习的自然森林和文化林地系统，如在罗马尼亚，俄罗斯和伊比利亚半岛的经济偏远地区的参考景观。我们的结论是，有很大的机会，创新的知识生产的治理和管理不同的可持续森林管理方面的基础上比较具体的景观。此外，还需要发展以地方为基础的社会学习进程，其特点是侧重于某一地理区域，致力于可持续森林管理政策远景，并对包括生态和社会系统在内的发展采取协作办法。
While sustainable forest management (SFM) policy processes are well developed, implementation on the ground remains a challenge. Given the diversity of biophysical conditions, economic histories and governance systems on the European continent, regionally and temporally adapted and adaptive solutions are needed for both social and ecological systems. To illustrate this, we apply (1) a biographic forest and woodland history approach to central Sweden's Bergslagen region, where boreal sustained yield forestry was widely applied first and (2) a comparative case study approach using five European landscapes that represent different forest history phases in Scotland, Germany, Ukraine and Russia. Additionally, we illustrate the need to learn from reference landscapes for natural forest and cultural woodland systems such as in economically remote regions in Romania, Russia and on the Iberian Peninsula. We conclude that there is great opportunity for innovative knowledge production about both governance and management for different SFM dimensions based on comparisons among concrete landscapes. In addition, there is a need to develop local place-based social learning processes that are characterized by a focus on a geographical area, commitment to SFM policy visions and collaborative approaches to development that include both ecological and social systems.
