Adam Felton
Presentation
Adam Felton är skog och naturvårdsekolog, docent och universitetslektor vid Institutionen för sydsvensk skogsvetenskap.
Mina primära forskningsintressen handlar om att upprätthålla biologisk mångfald och tillhörande ekosystemtjänster i skötta skogssystem, och om klimatförändringarnas konsekvenser, och relaterade anpassnings- och begränsningsinsatser, för skogens motståndskraft och hållbara ekosystemtjänstleverans. Detta fokus drivs av att det blir allt viktigare att ta itu med sådana frågor i Sverige och globalt. För att effektivt bevara skogens biologiska mångfald och tillhörande ekosystemtjänster krävs att sådana värden inte förvisas till begränsade skyddade skogsområden, utan strategiskt planeras och integreras i produktionsskogslandskap på bestånds- och landskapsskala. Hur man når dessa mål, samtidigt som man erkänner behovet av att upprätthålla skogens ekosystemtjänster, är fokus för min forskning.
Jag forskar också tillsammans med min kollega Annika Felton om näringsekologi hos älgar och primater, och tidigare i min karriär bedrev jag den mesta av min forskning i Australien och Sydamerika.
Undervisning
Jag är kursledare för en andraårskurs i bevarande av biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster i skog och landskap (BI1418), i det nya kandidatprogrammet för skog och landskap. Jag undervisar också för första året Trees: Structure and Function (BI1385) och kursen Forest Conservation Biology (BI1378), som ges inom MSC-programmet ”Forest Management for Multiple Goals”. Jag föreläser också på masternivå - (LK0378), som ges vid LTV-fakulteten i Alnarp, och på doktorandnivå i kursen Enhancing forest resilience for an uncertain future (PFG0071).

Urban Forestry - skötsel av urbana skogar och träd
Forskning
Tillsammans med mina underbara kollegor har min forskning bidragit till vår kollektiva förståelse av konsekvenserna för biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster av ett brett spektrum av skogsskötselalternativ, inklusive användning av lövträd, blandskogar, ändrade rotationslängder, kontinuerligt skogsbruk och uttag av avverkningsrester. Vi studerar metoder för skogsskydd, från bevarande av gröna träd och död ved till reservat och större skyddade skogsområden. Vår pågående forskning omfattar konsekvenser av bevarandeåtgärder och skogsbruksbeslut för kärlväxter, mossor, lavar, saproxyliska skalbaggar, fåglar och rådjur. Vår forskning omfattar ett brett spektrum av metoder, bland annat storskaliga experimentella studier, modellering, eDNA, fjärravläsare, fjärranalys, trädrelaterade mikrohabitatundersökningar och systematiska utvärderingar.
Jag är ledare för det FORMAS-finansierade Sweetspot-projektet (7,5 miljoner SEK) som undersöker hur bidraget till biologisk mångfald från åtgärder för att bevara gröna träd kan begränsas eller förstärkas av intensiteten i produktionsskogsbruket.
Jag bedriver också biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänstrelaterad forskning i tre FORMAS-projekt på 10 miljoner SEK som finansierades 2022 och som omfattar:
i) Hitta alternativa vägar till en framtid med blandad lövskog (Broaden-projektet)
ii) Samskapande av rådgivningstjänster och planering för diversifierad förvaltning i svenskt familjeskogsbruk (Co-Creator)
iii) Diversifiering av skogar med vårtbjörk för att säkerställa skogarnas motståndskraft och multifunktionella roller
Dessutom bedriver jag forskning om biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster i följande FORMAS-, Energimyndiheten- och EU-finansierade forskningsprogram.
SPARC-projektet Ett forskningsprojekt som ska hjälpa intressenter att anpassa skogsrelaterade beslut till klimatförändringar utan att äventyra andra viktiga ekonomiska, samhälleliga och miljömässiga skogsvärden.
