Biodiversity is part of ecosystem functioning. It is largely stimulated by the micro-habitats, which are real little living environments sheltered by the trees. The micro-habitats are havens very varied depending of the morphology of the trees.

According to data from Météo France, 2020 is the hottest year la plus chaude registered since 1900. The average temperature of the year reached 14°C, while the normal average for metropolitan France is about 12,6°C (climatic normals over the period 1981-2010)
We talked a lot about forests, of their important role for biodiversity and of plentiful ecosystem services returned by trees to society.
A forest soil is a set of layers that overlap on what is called a bedrock, the geological terrain.
Trees "drink" water from the ground, and evacuate a large part of this water by evaporation and the transpiration of their foliage.
We have previously seen the influence of trees on climatic factors at forest scale.
On this very particular spring day, all confined while nature continue to follow its work depending on climatic hazards, it seems important to us to remind how important the role of nature and forest is est fundamental.
The issue of water is an increasingly sensitive issue, even in France, especially with growing problems of the presence of pesticides and nitrates in soils.
In a context of important decrease in water resources and pollution of all kinds, there are many concerns around the question of water conservation and its quality.
In a previous article, we saw what forest biodiversity is: a diversity of species, ecosystems and functional diversity of living beings.
Inspired by a comprehensive book entitled "Dix facteurs clés pour la diversité des espèces en forêt - Comprendre l'Indice de Biodiversité Potentielle (IBP)", by C. Emberger, L. Larrieu and P. Gonin, published by the Centre National de la Propriété Forestière.
It is often said that forests are a major reservoir of biodiversity for the planet. We hear more and more about biodiversity, but we don't necessarily, but we don't necessarily realise the extent of what it covers.
The solutions of nature face to climate change may appear limited : adaptations and migrations will depend on genetic characteristics of trees and on the time we have.
As we have seen, climatic hazards and especially summer droughts are more and more recurrent, and they have been going on since the 1980s ...
Lower water reserves in soils Climate change means more frequent high temperatures.
