自然资源的合理利用和区域的可持续发展是东西方联合研究的优先领域之一。在北美和欧亚大陆的寒带，森林在经济上非常重要，同时也极易受到干扰。由于其面积和生态功能，北方森林及其最具动力的干扰因子—火在全球范围内的生态系统过程中起着重要作用。在过去的几年里，欧亚大陆北部（芬诺斯坎迪亚、俄罗斯欧洲、西伯利亚和俄罗斯远东）的全球变化研究界的兴趣急剧增长。这是一个人们知之甚少的广阔地区。在这个地区，由于人为气候强迫而导致的温度上升预计将是最大的，因此对大气的反馈可能很大。此外，它正处于经济快速发展的阶段，这可能导致其土地覆盖发生巨大而显著的变化。与一般高纬度地区一样，人们对欧亚大陆北部的兴趣主要集中在其在全球碳循环中的作用上，而全球碳循环很可能受到全球变化的重大影响。西方和东方国家之间的新研究倡议旨在处理一系列现象、问题和管理办法。
One of the first priority areas among joint East/West research programs is the rational use of natural resources and sustainable development of regions. In the boreal zone of North America and Eurasia forests are economically very important and, at the same time highly vulnerable to disturbances. Because of its size and ecological functions the boreal forest zone and its most dynamic disturbance factor-fire-play an important role in ecosystem processes on global scale. Interest within the global change research community in Northern Eurasia (Fennoscandia, European Russia, Siberia, and the Far East of Russia) has grown dramatically in the last few years. It is a vast area about which very little is known. It is a region where temperature rise due to anthropogenic climate forcing is predicted to be the greatest, and where the consequent feedbacks to the atmosphere are potentially large. In addition, it is poised to undergo rapid economic development, which may lead to large and significant changes to its land cover. Much of this interest in Northern Eurasia, as in the high latitude regions in general, is centerd on its role in the global carbon cycle, which is likely to be significantly affected under global change. New research initiatives between Western and Eastern countries have been designed to address a series of phenomena, problems and management solutions.
