Abstract

Multifunctional Roles of Forest Ecosystem Services in Environmental Sustainability and Climate Regulation

Anne Ola

Forests are among the most vital ecosystems on Earth, offering a
wide range of environmental services that support life, regulate
climate, and maintain ecological balance. These services, often
termed "ecosystem services," are not just essential for
environmental health but also for human well-being and
economic stability. Forests provide a complex array of services,
including carbon sequestration, water regulation, biodiversity
preservation, soil conservation, and climate moderation. As
these services play an increasingly important role in combating
global environmental challenges, understanding their value and
impact is crucial.
