Subject: 2nd IUFRO Restoring Forests Congress__Abstract Deadline July 1
Dear Colleagues,
Attached is the third circular for our upcoming IUFRO-sponsored 2nd Restoring Forests Congress to be held 14-16 October 2014 in Lafayette, Indiana USA (Purdue University). The deadline for abstracts for volunteer oral and poster presentations is July 1.
The 1st Restoring Forests Congress was held in September 2011 in Madrid, Spain and attended by > 100 scientists representing 17 countries. A double special issue of New Forests ( <http://link.springer.com/journal/11056/43/5/page/1> http://link.springer.com/journal/11056/43/5/page/1) was produced from the 1st Congress. The theme of the 2nd Congress is "What constitutes success in the 21st Century?". We will examine the continued evolution of the scope of forest restoration and re-explore the need to set realistic goals to achieve restoration success. Field tours will highlight the ongoing forest restoration research of the Hardwood Tree Improvement and Regeneration Center ( <http://www.htirc.org/> http://www.htirc.org) at Purdue University, featuring especially the role of genetics in ecological restoration.
Selected papers from the congress will once again be published in a special issue of New Forests. Please consider participating in the conference and forward this message to your colleagues, encouraging them to attend. Updated information can be found at the conference website: <https://www.purdue.edu/fnrrf/> https://www.purdue.edu/fnrrf/
Best wishes,

Dear stakeholder in ?forest ecosystems?
5 minutes - 7 questions
Provide your view on forest ecosystem visions and ecosystem services.
We would be very grateful if you or someone from your organization could
spend 5 minutes answering 7 questions related to ?Ecosystem visions?
within forestry and ecosystem services from forests.
The questions can be accessed at this link: -
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/5JXS2ZP
We are an EU-ESFRI preparation project ANAEE (www.anaee.com) working to
prepare a common experimental research infrastructure in terrestrial and
aquatic ecosystems Europe to investigate impacts and responses of
ecosystems to environmental changes and pressures.
Such an infrastructure will include facilities of relevance to forest
ecosystems.
In order to guide the way we plan such an infrastructure, it will be very
helpful to know how different stakeholders related to forest ecosystems:
view the threats to forest ecosystem services
the potential support which could be obtained from experimental research.
We believe that you or your organization can provide an important input to
our work and would be very grateful for your contribution.
Thank you in advance
On behalf of ANAEE
