Factors affecting the structure and function of forest ecosystem: disturbance and climate change

Abstract

This paper discusses the effects of climate change and disturbance on forest ecosystems. At present, the increasing temperature caused by global warming and the occurrence of various fire events has posed a huge challenge to forest managers. In this paper, the effects of climate change on the structure and function of forest ecosystems and the effects of disturbance factors on ecosystem services were discussed through literature review and database comparative analysis. As we learn more about the effects of these factors on forest ecosystems, we can urge forest managers to better protect forest ecosystems and promote their sustainable development through human activities in the future.
