Key requirements for a forest simulation model suitable for adaptive forest management planning are: (1) sensitive to climate drivers, (2) sensitive to various kinds of forest management interventions, (3) considering key ecosystem processes from “first principles” (i.e. mimick the process instead of highly aggregated correlative relationships among system elements; so called process-based modelling approaches). For European forests there are a couple of such models available in a few research groups. Usually, such models are science tools and too complex so as that a lay user could readily use them. The models which had been used within the MOTIVE project are introduced in a Project Deliverable. It is recommended to contact the authors of a model which you may be interested in.
