Dear all, On behalf on the organising committee I am pleased to announce the Second IUFRO International conference on Biodiversity in Forest Ecosystems and Landscapes http://www.ucc.ie/en/iufro2012/. It is also now listed on the IUFRO events page http://www.iufro.org/events/calendar/ This conference will build on the success of the first IUFRO International Conference on Biodiversity in Forest Ecosystems and Landscapes which was held in Kamloops in 2008. It will aim to provide an international forum for researchers, practitioners and students to discuss the challenges of maintaining and enhancing biodiversity in forests, and consider emerging trends in the sustainable management of forest ecosystems and landscapes. The conference will be held at University College Cork, Ireland in August 2012. The call for symposia is now open (deadline 28th February 2011). We look forward to seeing you there! Best Wishes, Anne Oxbrough
