| Sumario: | In this section we provide a more in-depth look at the role trees play in the provision of goods and
services in multifunctional landscapes. Tree growth is, however, vulnerable to climate variability,
depending on the physiological properties of the tree and characteristics of the site. A further
quantification of climate variability and climate change is needed to advise on what types of trees
can be grown where, to be ready for the likely local climate-change during their lifetime. This leads
to a discussion of the two-way relationship between climate change adaptation and rewards for
environmental services in multifunctional landscapes as a way to reduce vulnerability to climate
change.
