A text about assisted migration by Claudio Mura, Patricia Raymond and Sergio Rossi was recently published in The Conversation, an independent media organization publishing texts from the research community aimed at the public. The article briefly explains what assisted migration is and how the mismatch between natural tree migration speed and the shift of their favorable habitat due to climate change leads researchers to study this new climate adaptation strategy. A few examples of studies and trials are also presented in the text.
