dc.description.abstractThe forestry sector faces important challenges worldwide in the climate change scenario. The major challenges are the sustainability of forest resources and the conservation of biological diversity. Due to climate change, an increase in the incidence of fires and the action of pathogens has been observed in recent years. The forestry sector in Portugal has a high economic, social, and environmental value. In economic 'Willis, in 2015, its gross value added (GVA) represented more than 10 billion euros, corresponding to 13% of industrial GVA and 3% of national gross domestic ABSTRACT The forestry sector in Portugal faces important challenges, resulting in an increased incidence of fires and the action of pathogens, which puts the sustainability of forest resources at risk. Due to the economic, social, and environmental importance of forests, this work assessed the land use environmental impact of maritime pine and eucalypt standing in Portuguese forests. SimaPro software was used to translate the inventory table results into land use impact category. The ILCD 2011 Midpoint+ method was chosen to assess the land use environmental impact that focuses on soil quality and its indicator (kg carbon deficit), which describes the changes in soil organic matter associated with land interventions. The results showed that for the first rotation time, the land use impact category per cubic meter of maritime pine is 18423 kg C deficit and 23430 kg C deficit for eucalypt, which means that the land use impact category of eucalypt is 27% higher than the impact of maritime pine.en_US
