Call for papers

by Brigitte Burger

Von: Jose G. Borges (joseborges(a)isa.ulisboa.pt) Gesendet: Dienstag, 2. August 2016 15:51 Betreff: Call for papers Dear Colleagues, The IUFRO Units 4.04.04 'Sustainable Forest Management Scheduling' and 4.04.06 'Nature Conservation Planning' are sponsoring a Special Issue on Decision Support for Integrated Policy Analysis to be published in Forest Policy and Economics (http://www.journals.elsevier.com/forest-policy-and-economics <http://www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability> ). This Special Issue originates from an initiative of Working Group 2 “Forestry modelling for integrated policy analysis” of COST Action FP1207 “Orchestrating forest-related policy analysis in Europe (ORCHESTRA)". It addresses a topic that is relevant to the five themes of the IUFRO 2015-2019 Strategy and that is transversal to Divisions 3, 4, 6 and 9. We welcome the submission of manuscripts reporting research of models, methods and/or decision support systems (DSS) that account for forest-related policy analysis at multiple levels and its application in real case studies. As currently, little information is available about decision support tools used for forest policy development, a special focus should be on the information provided by different types of decision support tools at different scales and on the benefits and limitations/challenges of the approaches presented. Particular attention should be paid to forest-related policy fields such as biodiversity, climate change, bioenergy, trade and green economy. The deadline for manuscript submission: 30 September 2016 More information at: <http://www.journals.elsevier.com/forest-policy-and-economics/call-for-paper…> http://www.journals.elsevier.com/forest-policy-and-economics/call-for-paper… Sorry for any crossposting. Please disseminate this information to whomever you think might be interested. Thank you. Best regards, Jose G. Borges, Jordi Garcia-Gonzalo and Marc E McDill -- José G. Borges Professor at the School of Agriculture, University of Lisbon http://www.isa.utl.pt/home/node/369 Coordinator of EMMC Mediterranean Forestry and Natural Resources Management (MEDfOR) http://www.medfor.eu/ Coordinator of IUFRO Group Sustainable forest management scheduling http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-4/40000/40400/40404/
