    • This lecture examines how climate change affects forest health by altering tree physiology, pest and pathogen dynamics, and ecosystem resilience. It explores the influence of rising temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events on the susceptibility of forests to diseases and invasive species. The session also discusses strategies for monitoring, adaptive management, and enhancing forest resilience in the face of climate-driven challenges.

      Keywords: Climate change, Forest health, Pests and pathogens, Tree resilience, Ecosystem stress
