Forests and any other trees outside the forest play a relevant role all three great UN conventions on Climate Change, on Biodiversity, and on Combating Desertification. The policy processes to implement the measures in these conventions on sub-national, national, regional and international level are extremely complex. And that complexity comes, among other factors, from a blend of different sectoral and national interests, from a large number of scientifically not yet entirely resolved issues and a wide range of different biophysical, social, cultural and political conditions all over the world.The 3rd International DAAD Workshop on ¿Forests in Climate Change Research and Policy: The Role of Forest Management and Conservation in a Complex International Setting¿ held in Dubai and Doha along the conference of the parties (COP18) from 28st November to 2nd December had a strong focus on the role of forests and their management in context of international conventions and recent international and national policy. The volume contains 20 papers that are grouped under the topics The Role of Forests and their Management under Climate Change, International Policy Processes, Technical Issues on Remote Sensing, and Country Cases on Forest Management under Climate Change.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 4th international DAAD workshop ¿The Ecological and Economic Challanges of Managing Forested Landscapes in a Global Context¿ that was organized by the Chair of Forest Inventory and Remote Sensing at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen together with the Laboratory of Forest Resource Inventory (Remote Sensing and GIS), Faculty of Forestry, Bogor Agricultural University (IPB) and the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) from 16.-22. March 2014 in Bogor and Jakarta, Indonesia.
