Sixth Sudden Oak Death Science Symposium: Biosecurity, Plant Trade, and Native Habitats
Preliminary Announcement and Call for Papers
June 21 – 23, 2016
Fort Mason Center
2 Marina Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94123
The Sixth Sudden Oak Death Science Symposium: Biosecurity, Plant Trade, and Native Habitats brings together scientists and practitioners from throughout the world working on Phytophthora plant pathogens in wildands and nurseries. The meeting will provide a scientific update on the state of our knowledge about Phytophthoras and associated diseases in urban and wildland forests as well as nurseries, landscapes, and restoration areas.
This conference reflects widening concerns related to Phytophthora species in U.S. wildlands and the potential for spread from native and ornamental plant production facilities to restoration sites and adjacent lands. Phytophthora ramorum, cause of sudden oak death and other plant diseases, has killed millions of tanoak and coast live oak trees along the Pacific Coast and forced the removal of millions of Japanese larch trees in the U.K. The pathogen was inadvertently introduced to both North America and Europe on ornamental nursery stock and is a quarantined pest in over 65 countries. In California, the first U.S. detection of P. tentaculata in native plant nurseries and on outplanted restoration plants has heighted concern over other Phytophthora species in endemic plant and animal habitats. This meeting will expand the concept of the Sudden Oak Death Science Symposiums, with presentations on sudden oak death research and management progress since the Fifth Sudden Oak Death Science Symposium (June 2012, Petaluma) as well as other nursery and wildland Phytophthora issues.
Call for Papers, Case Studies, Speakers, and Posters
We are seeking abstracts (up to 1 page) of proposed papers or posters by January 29, 2016. These should be submitted via email using the format (including font size and style) of the attached MS-Word example and should clearly state if you would like to present a paper or a poster.

CALL FOR SESSION PROPOSALS
<http://www.iufro-ao2016.org/en/news.asp?id=23.html> http://www.iufro-ao2016.org/en/news.asp?id=23.html
Deadline for Submissions: 31 January 2016
The Congress Scientific Committee invites submission of session proposals for the IUFRO Regional Congress for Asia and Oceania 2016. In keeping with the spirit of the Congress title – Forests for Sustainable Development: The Role of Research, the Congress Scientific Committee is developing a program that will highlight the role of forest science in informing forest-related policies and management in Asia and Oceania to cope with the significant environmental, social and economic changes in the region and address the consequent challenges. The Congress program will reflect the forest science community’s diverse contributions, inside and outside the region, across the full range of natural and social science disciplines at various levels, from the gene to the globe, with special emphasis on key issues and research areas identified in IUFRO’s 2015-2019 Strategy.
Session proposals will be accepted that address one or more of the following Congress themes:
1. Sustainable forest management for enhanced provision of ecosystem services;
2. Forest and landscape rehabilitation and restoration;
3. Combating desertification, disaster and risk management, and climate change mitigation and adaptation;
4. Planted forests for fostering a greener economy;
5. Innovative technologies for bio-energy, bio-materials and other products;
6. Urban forestry for human health and community well-being;
7. Social and cultural aspects of forests, including traditional knowledge, human health, community participation and gender roles;
8. Forest and agro-forest management for food security, enhanced livelihoods and non-timber forest products.
Who may submit a session proposal?
All who share an interest in the future of forests and forest science session are invited to submit session proposals. We encourage proposals that involve collaboration between two or more IUFRO Divisions or Task Forces and/or with organizations not formally associated with IUFRO, and from university students at all levels. We strongly recommend IUFRO officeholders and others actively involved in IUFRO Research Groups, Working Parties, and Task Forces communicate with their respective Division representatives on the CSC (or Task Force coordinators, please see the list of CSC Members) before submitting proposals – this will greatly facilitate broader involvement of IUFRO divisional units and Task Forces in the scientific program and avoid overlaps among sessions.
Session proposals from non‐IUFRO member organizations are encouraged although preference will be given to those that are prepared jointly with IUFRO Divisional units and Task Forces–if assistance is needed to identify appropriate partners within IUFRO, please contact the CSC Chair or other members of the CSC.
Preparing and submitting a session proposal
Proposals should be submitted between now and January 31, 2016 (please see Important Dates) by submitting online ( <http://www.iufro-ao2016.org/> http://www.iufro-ao2016.org/) and then sending email to iufro_ao2016(a)163.com attached with the completely and appropriately filled Session Proposal. Proposals will not be accepted after January 31, 2016.
Session proposals should include basic information on session organizer(s), session title, alignment with Congress themes, and a short abstract of the session proposal, that describes the session objectives, content and proposed session format (i.e., presentation of individual papers and/or posters, moderated panel discussion, or other forms of presentation) and lists proposed speakers (if known), their organizational affiliations and tentative titles of their presentations. Proposed sessions should be organized to be 2 hours in length. For sessions involving oral presentations, were recommended that each speaker be given 15-20 minutes for his/her presentation.
Please note that the abstract submission process will be open to all, so session organizers may need to include oral presentations and/or posters that were not originally proposed for their sessions. Please be aware of this possibility and the need for flexibility in designing your session. In the event that the number of accepted abstracts for a particular session exceeds the number that can be accommodated in a single session, organizers may be given an additional session slot in the Congress program.
Criteria for selection
Session proposals will be reviewed and evaluated by members of the Congress Scientific Committee with primary consideration given to their scientific quality and relevance to the Congress themes. Other factors that will be considered are: the involvement of two or more IUFRO units (Divisions, Task Forces, Research Groups and Working Parties) and/or non‐IUFRO organizations; geographic and gender diversity of proposed session speakers or presenters; and the involvement of students and young scientists. Proposals will be evaluated as they are received, so we strongly encourage submissions well in advance of the January 31 deadline.
Acceptance decisions will be made no later than March 15, 2016. An open Call for Abstracts will be issued on April 1 with online abstract submission until May 15 and acceptance decisions by July 15, 2016.
Responsibilities of session organizers
Session organizers of accepted proposals are expected to communicate with prospective presenters regarding submission of abstracts (online, from April 1 through May 15, 2016), and will be asked to review abstracts submitted for their sessions during the abstract review period (i.e., May 15 to July 15, 2016). Session organizers may be asked to assist the CSC in the editing of accepted abstracts. They will also be responsible for moderating sessions (or assigning session moderation responsibilities) and are encouraged to pursue publication options for papers presented in their sessions.
Abstracts of papers and posters presented during the Congress will be printed and included in a Congress abstracts volume. As formal Congress proceedings with full papers will not be published, session organizers should explore alternative publication options (books, special issues of journals, etc.) for their sessions.
We look forward to hearing from you and for your active participation in the design of an excellent scientific program for the IUFRO Regional Congress for Asia and Oceania 2016 in Beijing.

Dear Colleagues,
Please find below a call for participants to a horizon scanning project
on biological invasions.
It is available in three languages (English, French and Spanish).
Sincerely yours,

//
*Alien Futures* is a new research project collecting and examining
issues that may affect the future global and local management of
biological invasions.
Horizon scanning is the systematic examination of future potential
threats, opportunities and likely future developments.
Some horizon scanning activities have already been undertaken about
invasive species, for example focusing on high risk species (e.g. Roy et
al. 2014), specific habitats (Ojaveer et al. 2014), or general issues
within European invasion science (e.g. Caffrey et al. 2014).
This project aims to complement these existing activities by exploring
the wider environmental, social and technological issues external to
invasion ecology that may have implications for the future management of
invasive species.
During the first phase of the project, we are gathering opinions on the
global and local issues that might affect the management of biological
invasions in the next 20 – 50 years.
We want to explore issues that may emerge and have implications in a
more distant future than currently considered in the management of
biological invasions.
These can be issues which might have positive or negative implications.
We invite people working with or interested in biological invasions to
fill in a survey on our website.
*To find out more, and fill in the survey, please visit
**www.alienfutures.org <http://www.alienfutures.org/>**.*
We encourage you to think creatively beyond the time frame of your
current work!
We would also be very grateful if you could forward this email to
colleagues or groups who may be interested in contributing.
Please copy in info(a)alienfutures.org <mailto:info@alienfutures.org>./
/
The survey also includes some questions about your background and your
interest in biological invasions.
It does not gather personally identifiable information unless you
provide us with an email address in order to hear about project outputs./
/
/
/All of the issues identified will be published online in an open-access
format, so please do not include any details that you would not wish to
be published.
Project outputs will include a long list of global issues, a long list
of local issues and a shortlist of global issues.
We will make the data available for use and further research, with
workshops planned to explore the implications of these issues for policy
and management.
You can follow the progress of the project on our website

*Alien Futures* est un nouveau projet de recherche destiné à identifier
les futures problématiques de gestion des invasions biologiques aux
échelles mondiale et locale.
Les analyses prospectivesont pour objectif un examen systématique de
futures menaces et des possibilités d’y répondre.
Celles qui ont été conduites sur les invasions biologiques
s’intéressaient principalement aux espèces à haut risque (p. ex. Roy et
al. 2014), à des habitats spécifiques (p.ex. Ojaveer et al. 2014), ou à
des enjeux européens (p. ex. Caffrey et al. 2014).
Alien Futures vise à compléter ces précédentes approches en explorant
les futurs enjeux environnementaux, sociaux et techniques de la gestion
des invasions biologiques.
Ce projet consiste donc à recueillir les opinions sur les problématiques
mondiales et locales associées à la gestion des invasions dans les 20 –
50 années à venir.
Nous souhaitons en effet pouvoir identifier les questions et les points
clés à prendre en compte au-delà des stratégies actuelles de gestion des
invasions.
Les enjeux et problématiques considérés peuvent avoir des répercussions
positives ou négatives.
Si vous travaillez sur, ou avez un intérêt pour, les invasions
biologiques, nous vous invitons à répondre à une courte enquête en ligne
sur notre site web.
*Pour en savoir plus, et pour répondre à l’enquête, rendez-vous sur
**<http://www.alienfutures.org/>www.alienfutures.org.*
Nous vous encourageons à réfléchir de manière créative au-delà de votre
propre période d’activité sur ce sujet !
Cette enquête inclut également quelques questions sur votre contexte
professionnel et/ou d'intérêt en lien avec les invasions biologiques.
Nous ne collectons aucune information personnelle et identifiable, à
moins que vous ne nous communiquiez une adresse e-mail pour vous
informer des résultats d’Alien Futures.
Toutes les problématiques identifiées dans cette enquête seront publiées
en ligne dans un format open-access, n’incluez donc pas dans vos
réponses des détails que vous ne souhaitez pas voir publiés.
*Les résultats d’Alien Futures incluront des listes exhaustives des
problématiques mondiales et locales suggérées, et une liste de
problématiques mondiales estimées prioritaires. *
Nous rendrons les données disponibles pour des recherches futures sur le
sujet et la planification de workshops destinés à explorer les
conséquences de ces problématiques pour les politiques de gestion des
invasions.
Nous vous serions aussi reconnaissants de transmettre ce message à des
collègues ou groupes de travail susceptibles de contribuer à ce projet.
Merci de nous mettre en copie dans ce cas :

*/Alien futures:/**Encuesta de escaneo del horizonte: Invitacion a
participar
*
*Alien Futures* es un nuevo proyecto de investigación que recoge y
examina cuestiones que pueden afectar a la gestión futura de las
invasiones biológicas, tanto a nivel global como local.
Escaneo del Horizonte implica un análisis sistemático de las amenazas
potenciales, oportunidades y posibles desarrollos futuros.
Ya se han llevado a cabo algunas actividades del escaneo del horizonte
sobreespecies invasoras, centrándose, por ejemplo, en las especies de
alto riesgo (p.ej. Roy et al 2014), hábitats específicos (Ojaveer et al
2014), o cuestiones generales dentro de la ciencia Europea de invasiones
biológicas (p.ej. Caffrey et al . 2014).
Este proyecto tiene como objetivo complementar estas actividades
existentes, mediante una amplia exploración ambiental, social y
tecnológica de cuestiones externas a la ecología de invasiones que
pueden tenerimplicaciones en la futura gestión de las especies invasoras.
Durante la primera fase del proyecto, estamos recopilando opiniones
sobre los temas globales y locales que puedan afectar a la gestión de
las invasiones biológicas en los próximos 20 - 50 años.
Queremos explorar las cuestiones que puedan surgir y que tienen
implicaciones futuras, positivas o negativas, en la gestión de especies
invasoras.
Invitamos a la gente que esté trabajando con las invasiones biológicas o
esté interesado en las mismas, a rellenar una breve encuesta en nuestra
página web.
*Para una mayor información, y rellenar la encuesta, por favor visite
nuestra web **_www.alienfutures.org_*****
Les animamos a pensar creativamente más allá del marco en el que se
desarrolla su trabajo actual.
Les agradeceríamos que enviara este email a compañeros o grupos que
pudieran estar interesados en contribuir.
Por favor, ponga en copia _infr(a)alienfutures.org_
La entrevista también incluye algunas preguntas sobre su experiencia y
su interés en las invasionesbiológicas. No se recopilará ninguna
información personal, a menos que usted nos proporcione su dirección de
correo electrónico de cara a que le informemos de los resultados del
proyecto. Todos los temas identificados serán publicados online en un
formato de acceso abierto, así que por favor, no incluya ningún detalle
que usted no desee que se publique.
Los resultados del proyecto incluirán una lista larga de aspectos
globales y otra de aspectos locales, además de una lista corta de los
aspectos mundiales. Haremos que los datos estén disponibles para su uso
e investigación, con talleres planeados para explorar las implicaciones
de estas cuestiones en la política y la gestión.

Caring for the land and serving people
Dear colleagues,
This is a reminder of the upcoming IUFRO Risk Analysis (4.04.07) meeting in Freiburg, Germany; 21-23 April, 2016.
The meeting is hosted by the Institute of Forestry, University of Freiburg.
PERCEPTION ==> PREDICTION ==> ACTION:
Managing risk in uncertain times.
This conference will bring together leading experts from the international scientific community to discuss:
* the risks posed to the forest resource by our changing climate
v natural disturbances (including insects, pathogens, fire, extreme weather)
v post-disturbance (natural and anthropogenic) silvics
v species range and biodiversity
* how these risks are perceived and predicted in the forest science and management community
* how risk and uncertainty can be incorporated in the decision-making process to increase the likelihood that the future realized ecosystem services match our stated goals
Abstract submission and registration is open at https://www.conftool.net/riskanalysis2016/.
Visit the Risk Analysis website<http://riskanalysis-iufro.org/index.html> for all meeting details.
