Nearly one-third of Ireland’s forests have four or more tree species present. Also, large quantities of deadwood are present within the forest, with 10.2 million m3 of deadwood present. For the first time over half (411,484 ha or 50.9%) of forests are in private ownership and 397,364 ha (49.1%) in public ownership.

The project aims to plant 100 million Native Irish trees across the island of Ireland over the next decade, to increase the native Irish tree population, to add to the biodiversity throughout the country and to help mitigate carbon dioxide output in Ireland.

A database of tree of biological, cultural, ecological or historical interest because of their age, size or condition. Geographic Coverage: The island of Ireland. Temporal Coverage: Survey undertaken in 2009. Species Groups recorded: conifer, fern, flowering plant, ginkgo. Dataset Status: Compete

Our most common native trees include oak, ash, hazel, birch, Scots pine, rowan and willow. Eventually, people brought other trees, such as beech, sycamore, horse chestnut, spruce, larch and fir to Ireland.

• Tree species composition; • Age structure of the forest estate. Key Facts • Forest trees began recolonising Ireland following the end of the last glacial stage 10,000 years ago. Analysis of pollen from peat bogs illustrates the establishment of forests that once covered 80% of the land surface;

In1999, The Tree Council of Ireland and The Irish Tree Society initiated the Tree Register of Ireland (TROI) to compile a database of trees throughout Ireland. Over 860 species and varieties are included in the register with 7,500 trees measured and recorded. The register is the first comprehensive study of Ireland's Champion Trees.

The Bluesky National Tree Map™ (NTM ™) is the only tree dataset to include trees in the Republic of Ireland and Great Britain that are 3 metres and taller. It captures height, location and canopy/crown extent of trees, whether in urban or rural areas, in small clusters, woodlands and forests, or single trees.

2021年12月14日 · Ireland is one of the least forested countries in Europe with 10.5% of its area under forest cover, the majority of which represents commercial conifer plantations. This indicator tracks changes in the area of native woodland habitats over time.

Throughout the seven volumes, the authors refer to both native and exotic trees, measured in Ireland, from Fota in Co Cork in the south, to Castlewellan in Co Down in the north. Lowe (1897) focused on yew, and published a comprehensive listing of outstanding trees of the species in Great Britain and Ireland.
