With climate change upon us fish need need wide buffer zones of mixed mature forest to keep rivers cool. Sweden is unprepared with < 5 m mean zones. River temps are now more often over 20°, critical for salmon and trout, lets put a proper green roof over our rivers.

Great winter field trip to the local continuous cover forestry field trial! Crust so thick we could walk on it! Being course leader for a Silviculture course in N Sweden in the middle of winter has its challenges, but it’s so worth it to get the students out of the classroom. #CCF #hyggesfritt
