The environmental pollution causes many ecological problems, climate changes and global warming, with adverse effect on forest ecosystems in the whole world, and Serbia also. Global warming and the potential changes of temperature and humidity, point out to a very wide range of the effects, both on the forest system in general and on the individual trees. Since the effects of global warming can be so intense in some regions that they can cause the changes in the forest productivity in composition of the plant and animal species in them, the forest cover would become unsustainable. Such reactions to the climate change would lead to numerous consequences and adverse effects on the preservation of biodiversity and water integrity, environmental protection, protection of the natural areas from erosion, as well as on the commercial forestry, wood processing industry, tourism, recreation, etc. This paper analyzes a significance, problems and challenges in forest ecosystems in Serbia caused by climate change and the impacts of the climate change on the forests and forest management. In order to predict new changes and adaptability of the forest ecosystems, it is necessary to initiate scientific researches, modernize forest policies, and apply more adaptive forest management practices in Serbia.
