CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
Dear forest scientists and experts, dear IUFRO members, dear colleagues,
The Congress Scientific Committee (CSC) is pleased to announce that the Call for Abstracts for the XXVI IUFRO Congress in Stockholm, Sweden, 23-29 June 2024, is open and welcomes submissions of abstracts for presentations in sub-plenary, technical and poster sessions.
To submit your abstract, please take the following steps:
1. Consult the list of sessions at Call for Congress Abstract | IUFRO Stockholm 2024 (iufro2024.com)<https://iufro2024.com/call-for-congress-abstract>
2. Submit your abstract at Abstract Submission | IUFRO 2024 <https://www.appinconf.com/kas/Abstract?projectName=iufro2024abstracts>
A form for abstract submission is available online. You will be required to insert a title (max 150 characters), authors with their affiliation (the author presenting the paper or poster at the Congress must be designated as the Presenting Author), and text (max 350 words describing context, specific topic of the study, methods, main results, and conclusions in plain writing). No figures, tables or list of references should be added. Please note that abstracts may be submitted in English only.
Authors must select one of the following options: oral only; poster only; oral or poster. The session organizers will decide on the length of a talk, which could range from 2-3 minutes for flash talks to 15 minutes or more for regular talks. Please note that poster presenters will be given the opportunity to present their work orally (2-3 min) during moderated poster sessions. The Congress will feature only digital poster displays to ensure high visibility for poster presentations. Poster areas will be open and free to visit during the whole Congress.
Authors are limited to a maximum of two abstracts as presenting author, although an individual may be listed as a co-author on several abstracts. Abstracts not associated with one of the sessions in the list may be assigned to a general poster session. Session organizers will review the abstracts for scientific quality, topical significance and relevance to the Congress themes<https://iufro2024.com/iufro-world-congress-2024/forests-and-society-towards…> and to the particular session to which the abstract is submitted, and assign them as oral or poster presentations. You will be informed in due time about the type and length of your presentation.
Candidates for Best Poster Award<https://www.iufro.org/fileadmin/material/discover/honour-bpa.pdf> must apply online during the abstract submission process.
Abstracts will be accepted until 2 June 2023. Authors will be informed if their presentation is accepted by 30 October 2023. In order to remain in the programme, the registration deadline for Presenting Authors of accepted abstracts is 15 January 2024.
We look forward to your active participation in the design of the scientific program for the 2024 IUFRO Congress in Stockholm.

Dear Colleagues,
Ecosystem management under changing conditions needs new tools to
insight and forecast forest dynamic and management. Artificial
intelligence is a game changer in forest management. Artificial
intelligence (AI) encompasses a wide range of techniques and frameworks
dating back to the mid twenty century. The use of AI in forestry is
relatively new, especially when compared to the early adoption of AI in
other fields. The irruption of AI spins researchers and practitioners to
unfold the analysis of complex big data. Narrow AI, defined as an AI
system that is specified to perform a limited task, is commonly applied
in biometry (e.g., analysis of forest structure with 3D point cloud
data) but no so common in other ecosystem management domains. Currently,
adequate AI algorithms can be efficiently prototyped due to plenty of
publicly available databases, open-source libraries and the
accessibility to computing platforms.
To insight on this topic and share last works, We, at the University of
Valladolid (Campus at Palencia), are organizing a *Conference on
Artificial Intelligence and Ecosystems Management *You can have update
information at
https://eventos.uva.es/92504/detail/artificial-intelligence-and-ecosystems-…
*Registration is currently open*
This conference is part o the IUFRO unit 4.01.02 - Growth models for
tree and stand simulation, but is open to the whole Division 4 and the
IUFRO community as a whole.
Looking forward to seen you in Palencia
Best regards
