Barriers to and opportunities for climate change adaptation in the Swedish forestry sector

While Swedish forestry is often viewed as a climate change 'winner' due to potential increases in vegetation growth and productivity from higher temperatures, the document asserts that climate change will also produce negative effects, necessitating adaptation strategies within the sector.

• Swedish forestry is frequently perceived as a beneficiary of climate change because higher temperatures are expected to increase vegetation growth and productivity.
• Despite potential productivity gains, it is becoming evident that climate change will also cause negative impacts on Swedish forests, which influences the sector's adaptation requirements.
