On forest resilience to global changes/ sur la résilience des *forêts face aux changements globaux

加拿大研究主席（CRC）的目的是大幅提高我们的能力 * 设计森林管理实践，以促进森林对全球变化的适应能力。它将建立和使用新的高密度多树种实验来研究树种之间的相互作用机制以及这些机制在森林生态系统对环境压力的功能和恢复力中的潜在作用。然后，它将整合这一更好地理解的作用和重要性 * 的树木多样性，在应对环境压力与空间明确的立场 * 动态和景观模型和网络理论和功能多样性的方法，以 * 发展有效的造林方法，以促进森林恢复力管理 * 加拿大和世界各地的森林。

This Canada Research Chair (CRC) aims at substantially increasing our capacity to *design forest management practices to promote forest resilience to global changes. It *will establish and use novel high-density multi-species tree experiments to study*mechanisms of interaction among tree species and the underlying role of these *mechanisms in the functioning and resilience of forest ecosystems to environmental*stressors. It will then integrate this better understanding of the role and importance *of tree diversity in coping with environmental stressors with spatially-explicit stand *dynamic and landscape models and network theory and functional diversity approaches to *develop efficient sylvicultural approaches to promote forest resilience to managed *forests of Canada and worldwide.
