The following activities are planned: (I) literature research for state-of-the-art analysis on available indicators, models, and datasets; (II) implementation and testing of predictive models for stress conditions in forest systems; (III) validation of models based on past events; and (V) dissemination of project results through traditional reporting, web, and social networks.
