questions to be answered
what indicators are suitable to asses “forest health” and stress factors such as drought, respectively?
is forest growth a suitable indicator? What are the limitations?
what are the existing networks? What are the limitations with respect to data availability or data quality?

clarification of the aims of forest health monitoring system
answer new questions (climate change, biodiversity)
be as multifunctional as possible
improve integrations of different monitoring systems
be an early warning system (recording annual appearance of causes and effects)
combine monitoring activities and research
sell products to stakeholders (extension activities)
cross-scale focus

some facts
A general concern over the state of the environment and the impacts of global change on ecosystem services and functions has highlighted the need for high-quality, long-term datasets for detecting and understanding environmental change (Parr et al., 2003).
Long-term monitoring and long-term research are needed and called for by stakeholders to provide measures of baseline conditions and for informing decisions on ecosystem management and environmental policy formulation.
Fact is: Monitoring is a fundamental requirement in order to test and refine impact predictions and to monitor the response forest ecosystems to adaptation activities.
