DECAF

Deforestation and forest degradation are rapidly impacting natural forests around the world.

DECAF is a 5-year project (2018-2023) funded through the European Research Council (ERC). We are studying the impacts of deforestation and forest degradation on local and regional climate and the interactions between deforestation, forest degradation, fires and climate.

There are several subprojects within DECAF, whose outputs can be viewed here.

DECAF is funded through the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement no. 771492).
