[IUFRO Div 7] EGU 2012: Invitation for hosting a session

Dear colleagues, As scientific officer of the EGU (European Geosciences Union, www.egu.eu<http://www.egu.eu>)u>), division ERE (Energy, Resources and the Environment), I am responsible for the development of the focus area "aboveground processes" within our division and coordinating the program for the annual general assembly. I would like to invite you and your colleagues to (co)organize a session on forest bioenergy (potentials, challenges, ramifications, context with land-use...). For your orientation, the program of our last meeting is available here: http://meetings.copernicus.org/egu2011/EGU2011_programmegroup_programme_ERE…. As one can observe, biomass (in general) is not represented well and hence we seek for additional contributions to cover this field. Since our IUFRO division certainly has the capacity to organize such sessions I am confident that there would be someone who can take this over. Please also forward this invitation to your colleagues. I am available for any questions and would like to point out that the abstract for a session should be submitted by end of June. I am looking forward to hear from you, Best Regards, Viktor Bruckman _________________________ Dipl.-Ing.
