Two colleagues of mine have kindly agreed to host a one-hour online masterclass on the basics. We would be delighted if you could attend and share this opportunity with your colleagues. Details are in the attached and below:

Invitation to Consortium on Legacy Forest Information Resources
by Brigitte Burger
Dear IUFRO members:
IUFRO approved our proposed Task Force on Legacy Forest Data and Related Resources (T57 https://www.iufro.org/task-forces/t57-legacy-forest-data-and-related-resour…) The purpose of this Task Force is to contribute to the rescue, curation, and use of Legacy Forest Information Resources. These resources are older data and other sources that are useful for forest restoration and many other purposes. But they are in danger of being lost due to existing only on paper or older digital formats.
We are also forming a Consortium on Legacy Forest Information Resources linked to the Task Force, so all can participate who are interested in legacy forest information resources. There was more interest than we could accommodate in the Task Force group. If you would like to participate in the Consortium, please fill out the Google Form at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe1AbTK29G4rpDXdRgBF5nXDP49aWUsIxd…, and we will invite you to join and contribute to the online discussion “spaces” (using Google Chat) on various topics. Please also share this invitation with others.
Thank you!

According to experts on the latest episode of IUFRO's "Branching Out" podcast, the answer depends entirely on your objectives. For a forest managed for timber, any insect or disease that reduces wood quality is a negative influence. However, in a native forest managed for biodiversity, these same agents can be beneficial, recycling nutrients and resetting the ecosystem. <br /><br />In Episode 7, host Jose Bolaños (IUFRO HQ) and co-host Raghav Sharma from the International Forestry Students' Association (IFSA) spoke with Tod Ramsfield (Natural Resources Canada/University of Alberta) and Maartje Klapwijk (Swedish University of Agricultural Science), Co-Coordinators of Division 7, Forest Health. They explained that their Division focuses on the interactions between trees and harmful biotic impacts, which are broadly divided into forest pathology (diseases, often caused by fungi) and forest entomology (insects). <br /><br />Tune in to Branching Out: the forest podcast!

<p><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(34,34,34);">What defines a "healthy forest"? According to experts on the latest episode of IUFRO's "Branching Out" podcast, the answer depends entirely on your objectives. For a forest managed for timber, any insect or disease that reduces wood quality is a negative influence. However, in a native forest managed for biodiversity, these same agents can be beneficial, recycling nutrients and resetting the ecosystem. </span><br /><br /><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(34,34,34);">In Episode 7, host Jose Bolaños (IUFRO HQ) and co-host Raghav Sharma from the International Forestry Students' Association (IFSA) spoke with Tod Ramsfield (Natural Resources Canada/University of Alberta) and Maartje Klapwijk (Swedish University of Agricultural Science), Co-Coordinators of Division 7, Forest Health. They explained that their Division focuses on the interactions between trees and harmful biotic impacts, which are broadly divided into forest pathology (diseases, often caused by fungi) and forest entomology (insects). </span><br /><br /><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(34,34,34);">Two of the biggest threats to forest health today are climate change and invasive species. Climate change alters weather patterns, creating stress like drought that makes trees more vulnerable to pathogens. It also makes new regions more hospitable for invasive species to establish themselves. These species often travel through global trade, not just in live plants but also hidden in wood packaging materials. </span><br /><br /><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(34,34,34);">Managing these threats is complex. Strategies include planting mixed-species forests to "confuse" specialist insects, making it harder for them to find their host trees. For invasive pathogens affecting native ecosystems, like white pine blister rust in North America, scientists are working to breed resistant trees by identifying and propagating naturally resilient specimens. However, the best defence is often prevention, by keeping invasive species out of a country in the first place. </span><br /><br /><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(34,34,34);">The conversation also highlighted the importance of interdisciplinary work, noting that managing forest health involves not only science but also legislation and understanding social attitudes.</span><br /><br /><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(34,34,34);">Tune in to </span><strong>Branching Out: the forest podcast</strong><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);color:rgb(34,34,34);">!

International Survey on Protective Forest Governance – Invitation to Participate
by Teich Michaela
Dear IUFRO Division 8 colleagues,
The Working Party 8.03.02 “Snow and Avalanches,” together with colleagues from Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Norway, the USA, and other countries, is conducting an international survey on the governance of forests that protect against natural hazards. We are particularly interested in how the status and management of protective forests are embedded—or not—in laws and policies, and in the role that extreme events play in this context.
For this purpose, we have developed a questionnaire: https://www.soscisurvey.de/forests-riskreduction/
The goal is to gain an overview of how protective forests are managed worldwide to reduce natural hazards and disaster risks. This overview will not only serve as a basis for publications but also help identify research and implementation gaps for future projects.
If you have expertise on protective forest governance in your region and/or country, we would be very grateful if you could complete the questionnaire by the end of September.
Thank you very much in advance for your contribution—we highly appreciate it!
Best regards,
Michaela Teich
(8.03.02 Coordinator)

Hosted by Jose Bolaños, IUFRO HQ, and Ngozi Edum, IFSA, this episode features Purabi Bose, Co-Coordinator of Division 6. <br /><br />For too long, the social dimension of forests and forestry was seen as a "soft skill", with people's participation often overlooked. This episode addresses that challenge, emphasizing that people's participation is crucial. You'll uncover how Division 6 serves as a key platform, fostering cooperation and interdisciplinary communication within the scientific community.<br /><br />Purabi Bose highlights the evolution of social aspects, moving from government-run programs to a focus on community-based forest management and conservation, especially involving local and Indigenous communities. Learn about recent scientific developments, including how funding is now increasingly decentralized and directed to local communities, and the growing emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion in forest work.<br /><br />The discussion touches upon critical topics researched by Division 6, such as forest recreation, nature-based tourism, conflict resolution, urban forestry, gender in forest science, forest education, and rural governance. This is an opportunity to explore how these social elements are not peripheral but central to sustainable forestry.<br /><br />Don't miss this insightful conversation that calls for more voices and diverse ideas to highlight the social aspects of forests and forestry. Tune in to Branching Out: the forest podcast! Listen wherever you enjoy your podcasts, and don't forget to follow us!<br /><br /><i><strong>Find this and other episodes at: </strong></i><a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM5U…><span style="color:#E6E64D;"><i><strong>IUFRO - Podcast</strong></i></span></a></p></div>

The 14th biennial Short Rotation Woody Crops International was hosted by the University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry from May 13-16, 2024 in Columbia, MO. <br /><br />A joint meeting of the Short Rotation Woody Crops International Conference and the Poplar and Willow Council of Canada (PWCC), the 2024 conference brought together members of leading SRWC and agroforestry organizations, including the University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry, the International Commission on Poplars and Other Fast-Growing Trees Sustaining People and the Environment (IPC) Working Party on Environmental and Ecosystem Services (WP-ENV), the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO) Working Party 1.03.00 (<a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM3E…><span style="color:#E6E64D;">Short Rotation Forestry</span></a>), the IUFRO Working Party 1.06.01 (<a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM3E…><span style="color:#E6E64D;">Phytotechnologies for Degraded Sites in Rural and Urban Communities</span></a>), and the IUFRO Working Party 2.08.04 (<a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM3E…><span style="color:#E6E64D;">Physiology and Genetics of Poplars and Willows</span></a>). <br /><br />With the theme of "<i>The Future is Green: Integrating Short Rotation Woody Crops (SRWCs), Agroforestry, and Ecosystem Services for Sustainable, Productive Landscapes</i>", the objective of the 2024 conference was to highlight current SRWC and agroforestry research with the goal of enhancing information exchange and fostering collaboration for integrating SWRC into agroforestry systems. <br /><br />Additionally, unique to this conference, there were multiple student-focused initiatives throughout, including: </p><p>1) the first ever Woody Crops Scholars Program,<br />2) a student career panel discussion, and <br />3) a student presentation competition. <br /><br />These initiatives enhanced student participation and engagement at the conference. The conference consisted of 2 plenary presentations, 31 oral presentations and 17 poster presentations from a variety of topic areas including agroforestry, biomass production, economics, ecosystem services, genetics, physiology, and phytotechnologies. In addition, Dr. Benjamin Knapp from the University of Missouri presented a welcome plenary about the University of Missouri Center for Agroforestry. <br /><br /><a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM5U…><span style="color:#E6E64D;">These proceedings</span></a> detail all presentations that were given to the over 60 people who attended the conference. </p></div>

Webinar: Challenges in modelling microbial interaction in SOC decomposition
by Menichetti Lorenzo (LUKE)
HI all.
This is just to let you all know that the Holisoils project, in collaboration with the IUFRO Task Force 58 (https://www.iufro.org/task-forces/t58-the-impact-of-biodiversity-on-carbon-…) organized a webinar on the topic:
Challenges in modelling microbial interaction in SOC decomposition
https://holisoils.eu/holisoils-webinar-series-challenges-in-modelling-micro…
We will go through some of the issues we encounter when introducing microbial interactions in kinetics, as well as some of the possible approaches.
Please circulate it if you think the topic can be of interest within your network (and remember that if you are interested, registration is needed).
Thanks for the time spent reading this!
