DIABOLO aims at bridging the gaps in the provision of forest information by • developing Europe-wide harmonised forest

information

• improving multi-purpose forest inventory

• improving forest disturbance monitoring using new European satellite data

• modelling biomass supply and trade-offs with other ecosystem products and services

33 DIABOLO partners, 25 countries

DIABOLO supports climate change mitigation and adaptation by • Harmonised and enhanced estimation of European forest –based biomass

supply and carbon pools

greenhouse gas (GHG) reporting

identification of mitigation potential

• Better integration of remote sensing and field data

faster mapping of forest disturbances in Europe

promoting biomass mobilization in local scale

DIABOLO produces information for bioeconomy policies and future post-fossil alternatives from European to local levels.

The results will benefit all EU member countries on regional, national and European level.
