Evelyne Thiffault: The Commitment of Forêt Montmorency in the Fight Against Climate Change!
At Forêt Montmorency of Laval University, Professor Evelyne Thiffault and her team are at the forefront of research on carbon storage in forest environments. For 60 years, this vast boreal territory has served as a natural laboratory, allowing for the exploration of the essential role of forestry in mitigating the effects of climate change.
The research conducted by Evelyne Thiffault focuses on understanding the dynamics of carbon storage in forests and how forestry practices can be optimized to maximize this capacity. By studying the relationship between tree growth, ecosystem management, and climate, her team contributes to developing innovative strategies to promote sustainable forestry.
Forêt Montmorency, with its rich biodiversity and varied ecosystems, offers a unique experimental ground for assessing the impacts of human interventions and environmental policies. By highlighting the synergies between forest management and carbon sequestration, Evelyne Thiffault and her team play a key role in raising awareness of climate issues and the necessity of adopting responsible forestry practices.
Through its research, Forêt Montmorency not only serves as an observatory of nature but also becomes an engaged actor in the fight against climate change, offering concrete and innovative solutions for a sustainable future.
