Surveys on data on global forest condition

by Brigitte Burger

Dear colleagues, Due to the current health situation we, the IUFRO Task Force on Monitoring Global Tree Mortality Patterns and Trends, had to cancel our first workshop on Harmonizing terrestrial data sources on forest condition that was supposed to be held in Wuerzburg, Germany, at the end of March. We have acted upon the corona restrictions and have substituted the 'physical' workshop with two online surveys, which will be followed by a series of virtual working group meetings. Surveys and workshops aim to identify existing terrestrial and remote sensing data sources on forest condition and how the data can be harmonized to infer information on tree mortality rates and trends over time. We now seek your help to assemble information on existing data sources that allow deriving global tree mortality rates. The links below will take you to the surveys, specifically designed to be as brief as possible. The surveys seek to assemble metadata on existing data sources in order to: · develop methods for quantification of tree mortality rates consistently across different protocols, and · link ground and satellite-based information to understand how tree mortality changes over time. Terrestrial data: <https://forms.gle/NnVfhLv66j1Hnbro6> https://forms.gle/NnVfhLv66j1Hnbro6 Remote sensing data: <https://forms.gle/h9eXvob7E6ZXRjxVA> https://forms.gle/h9eXvob7E6ZXRjxVA Data hosting will be assumed by the International Tree Mortality Network ( <https://www.tree-mortality.net/> https://www.tree-mortality.net/) which is an initiative established by the IUFRO Task Force on Monitoring Global Tree Mortality Patterns and Trends. Please contact us ( <https://www.iufro.org/science/task-forces/tree-mortality-patterns/> https://www.iufro.org/science/task-forces/tree-mortality-patterns/) if youre interested in joining the post-survey workshops or for any other requests or inquiries. --- Dr. (habil.)

Post-doctoral position 'ecology of biological invasions' available at WSL, Switzerland

by eckehard.brockerhoff＠wsl.ch

Dear all, WSL (the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research) is advertising a post-doctoral position on the ecology of biological invasions, a collaborative project with eawag (the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology). The aim of the project is to compare invasions in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems primarily at large (national) spatial scales and among several higher-level taxa (insects, molluscs, crustaceans, all major vertebrate classes, and plants), test the biotic resistance hypothesis, and explore the role of factors that could influence invasiveness and invasibility. For further information see https://apply.refline.ch/273855/1053/pub/2/index.html or contact Ecki Brockerhoff, email: eckehard.brockerhoff(a)wsl.ch --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eckehard Brockerhoff, PhD Head of Research Unit 'Forest Health and Biotic Interactions' Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL www.wsl.ch/en/about-wsl/research-units/forest-health-and-biotic-interaction… Zürcherstrasse 111, CH-8903 Birmensdorf, Schweiz/Switzerland

NFZ summer school “Emerging pests and diseases in temperate forests” - INRAE Nancy - July 6-10, 2020

by Pascal Frey

Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the organization of a summer school in the framework of the NFZ-forestnet (Nancy-Freiburg-Zurich) on the topic "Emerging pests and diseases in temperate forests" which will take place at INRAE Champenoux, near Nancy, North-East France, from 6 to 10 July, 2020. The summer school is mainly intended for PhD students, but also young researchers, and Master's students interested in understanding the biology and the epidemiology of emerging pests and diseases in temperate forests, and gaining insight into the consequences for forest management. More information and the program are available at : https://workshop.inrae.fr/nfz-summerschool/. The registration of participants is now open and candidate participants should register until May 1, 2020. Registration is free, but participants will cover their own travel and accommodation costs. The scientific committee decided so far to maintain the summer school despite the current Covid-19 crisis, as we hope that the situation will be settled by then. In case the situation is still complicated for traveling abroad, we will make our final decision whether to maintain or to postpone it by June 1, 2020. Please help us disseminating this announcement to potentially interested students. Take care of yourself.
