Dear Colleagues,
IUFRO Units 4.04.04—Sustainable Forest Management Scheduling, IUFRO Unit
4.03—Informatics, Modelling, and Statistics and IUFRO Unit 4.03.03.
Information management and information technologies are sponsoring a
Special Issue of /Forests /(http://www.mdpi.com/journal/forests) on
Decision Support to Address Multiple Ecosystem Services in Forest
Management Planning
We welcome the submission of manuscripts for publication in this Forests
special issue (SI). This SI aims at contributing to our understanding of
how we can enhance forest management planning, in integrating a wide
range of ecosystem services (ES) and assuring a sustainable supply (e.g.
products and services listed in the Millenium Ecosystem Assessment). We
welcome manuscripts that focus on 1) models to help forest managers
check the impact of management options on the provision of ES, 2)
methods to help forest managers develop plans targeting the supply of
ES, 3) methods to help forest managers analyze tradeoffs between a
multitude of ES, 4) methods to help forest managers assess the
sensitivity of the supply of ecosystem services to uncertain parameters,
5) multiple criteria decision support systems and 6) approaches to map
the demand for ES and the quality and quantity of ES supply. Papers
submitted for publication in this Special Issue will undergo a rigorous
peer review process with the aim of prompt and wide dissemination of
research results and applications.

On behalf the other co-editors of this SI, Harald Vacik, Keith Reynolds,

Subject: Postdoc position in Forest Modelling in Romania
Dear colleagues and friends,
The National Institute for Research and Development in Forestry (INCDS) “Marin Drăcea” in Romania is hiring a post-doc for two years.
The position should start as soon as possible and preferably in June this year. We are looking for somebody with a background in forest ecology and modelling to implement a forest landscape simulation model aimed at forecasting the future of Romanian forests under range of climate and management scenarios.
Please find further information in the attachment.
The only hard requirement of the position is that candidates must have working rights within the EU.
Could you please circulate this offer to potential candidates you know of and who are looking for postdoc opportunities?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Cristina Aponte
