I am working on:
defining the climate change mitigation potential and role of temperate and boreal forests in Europe
Sr. Zoltan Kun
I suggest using the Buchwald hierarchical terminology in Europe which would make al discussion about primary forest more relevant to the European continent.
A EU member states could report also through the Forest Information System for Europe.
The European countries monitoring data should also be integrated into the regular State of Europe's Forest (SOEF) reports. However, the definition must be standardised (eg. SOEF reports on undisturbed forest, which is a very vague term).
The reports must also include changes resulted either by natural or by human disturbance. The main purpose of reporting in Europe at least is to help strengthening the protection of the remaining few primary / old-growth forests (see old-growth forest strategy here).
