This report presents an updated EU scale forestry cost model. This update is designed to more comprehensively capture relevant management activities such as regeneration and forest roads. Unlike previous models, which focused mainly on rotational forestry and timber supply, the updated model incorporates alternative management systems such as continuous cover forestry (CCF), distinguishes afforestation between tree species groups, and better accounts for spatial variability across the EU27. Furthermore, the model generates labor demand indicators, enabling integration with broader socioeconomic analyses and macroeconomic tools like GLOBIOM and MAGNET.

This deliverable describes the i3PGmiX model. The model is based on the 3PGmix process-based forest growth model and includes developments on the representation of photosynthesis, autotrophic respiration, natural mortality, forest management, as well as soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics. The report has been published in One Earth Journal.

This deliverable describes the i3PGmiX model. The model is based on the 3PGmix process-based forest growth model and includes developments on the representation of photosynthesis, autotrophic respiration, natural mortality, forest management, as well as soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics. Besides a technical model description for future users, the deliverable also includes a proof of concept where the i3PGmiX model results for a simulation of climate change impacts on forest growth in Europe, as well as the impact of wind and bark beetle disturbance activity.
