Conduct a comparative study of oak and spruce trees in mixed-species stands. Measure growth rates, health, and resilience to environmental stressors such as drought, pests, and diseases. This project aims to evaluate the potential of oak trees to replace less suitable species like spruce in southern Sweden's changing climate, contributing to forest management strategies that enhance ecosystem resilience.
