BioVeL is an EU research project that provides automated tools for data
processing in major areas of biodiversity and ecosystem research, such
as ecological niche modelling, ecosystem functioning, and taxonomy.
In a technology showcase on Friday, October 10th, 12:00-13:00 in Room
150C of the Salt Lake Convention Center, BioVeL will show its work in
forest science. Four presentations will be made, covering 1) the main
ideas of using workflows and web services in a virtual e-laboratory; 2)
ecological niche modelling of the change of distribution and damage risk
by the most important forest insect pests in Europe; 3) carbon modelling
with Biome-BGC model to quantify and derive important ecosystem service
indicator measures; and 4) open access to biodiversity and ecosystem
data through the Global Biodiversity Information Facility.

Dear colleagues,
Registration is open for the FAO-run online conference ‘The Economics of Climate Change Mitigation Options in the Forestry Sector’, which will take place as six sessions during 6-27 February 2015. A hundred free places are available in each online session. Forestry policy makers, forest economists, scientists and researchers from all over the world are expected to join this conference to discuss the costs and benefits of different mitigation options. The conference will examine how different countries and regions mitigate climate change through forest management interventions and improved use of wood. Discussions will also showcase lessons learned from mitigation efforts and their impacts on the value chain of forest products.
The deadline for case study submission is 10 November 2014 and for registration is 16 January 2015. For more information and registration, please visit the conference web page
www.fao.org/forestry/cc-mitigation-economics.
If you have any specific question, please contact Illias Animon (illias.animon(a)fao.org) or Ruth Mallett (ruth.mallett(a)fao.org)
