Climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies (CCAMS) are changes to the management of production forests motivated by the need to mitigate climate change, or adapt production forests to climate change risks. Sweden is employing CCAMS with unclear implications for biodiversity and forest ecosystem services (ES). Here, we synthesized evidence from 51 published scientific reviews, to evaluate the potential implications for biodiversity and a range of provisioning, regulating, and cultural ES, from the adoption of CCAMS relative to standard forestry practice. The CCAMS assessed were the adoption of (i) mixed-species stands, (ii) continuous cover forestry, (iii) altered rotation lengths, (iv) conversion to introduced tree species, (v) logging residue extraction, (vi) stand fertilization, and (vii) altered ditching/draining practices. We highlight the complexity of biodiversity and ES outcomes, identify knowledge gaps, and emphasize the importance of evidence-based decision making and landscape-scale planning when navigating choices involving the widespread adoption of CCAMS.
气候变化适应和缓解策略（CCAMS）是为了缓解气候变化或使生产林适应气候变化风险而对生产林管理进行的改变。瑞典正在采用 CCAMS，但对生物多样性和森林生态系统服务（ES）的影响尚不清楚。在这里，我们综合了 51 篇已发表的科学评论的证据，以评估相对于标准林业实践采用 CCAMS 对生物多样性和一系列供应、调节和文化 ES 的潜在影响。评估的 CCAMS 包括采用（i）混种林，（ii）连续覆盖林业，（iii）改变轮作长度，（iv）转为引入树种，（v）采伐剩余物提取，（vi）林分施肥，以及（vii）改变沟渠/排水实践。我们强调了生物多样性和 ES 结果的复杂性，确定了知识差距，并强调在涉及广泛采用 CCAMS 的决策时，基于证据的决策和景观尺度规划的重要性。
