干旱的增加，主要是由于降水量减少，但也由于温度升高，可能是对地中海森林多样性和生存的主要威胁。土地使用的变化，包括主要在山区和偏远地区放弃大规模的作物种植活动，以及人类住区的增加和对更多资源的需求以及由此造成的景观破碎化，阻碍了建立适当的管理工具来保护地中海森林及其提供的服务和生物多样性。实验和观察表明，如果气候、土地使用和全球变化的其他组成部分，如污染和过度开发资源，继续发生变化，许多森林的复原力可能会被超越，改变其结构和功能，改变其继续提供现有服务的能力，主要是降低其能力。然而，由于难以同时获得同一森林、地区和区域所有规模的影响的完整数据，对这些变化的影响进行一致的评估仍然很难。我们审查了气候变化和全球变化的其他组成部分的影响及其对地中海地区陆地森林的相互作用，特别关注其对生态系统服务的影响。最后讨论了抵消全球变化对地中海生态系统服务的负面影响的管理工具。
The increase in aridity, mainly by decreases in precipitation but also by higher temperatures, is likely the main threat to the diversity and survival of Mediterranean forests. Changes in land use, including the abandonment of extensive crop activities, mainly in mountains and remote areas, and the increases in human settlements and demand for more resources with the resulting fragmentation of the landscape, hinder the establishment of appropriate management tools to protect Mediterranean forests and their provision of services and biodiversity. Experiments and observations indicate that if changes in climate, land use and other components of global change, such as pollution and overexploitation of resources, continue, the resilience of many forests will likely be exceeded, altering their structure and function and changing, mostly decreasing, their capacity to continue to provide their current services. A consistent assessment of the impacts of the changes, however, remains elusive due to the difficulty of obtaining simultaneous and complete data for all scales of the impacts in the same forests, areas and regions. We review the impacts of climate change and other components of global change and their interactions on the terrestrial forests of Mediterranean regions, with special attention to their impacts on ecosystem services. Management tools for counteracting the negative effects of global change on Mediterranean ecosystem- services are finally discussed.
