Dear all,
We are delighted to announce a 3-day workshop on the application of ForestGALES/fgr held
at Forest Research (Northern Research Station) just outside Edinburgh, from 9-11 April
2024.
Myself and Barry Gardiner are organising the workshop together with the IUFRO 8.03.06
‘Working Unit Impact of Wind on Forests’.
The workshop deals with various aspects of wind risk modelling that can be addressed with
ForestGALES/fgr. The program is an exciting mix of talks, working on examples, and a field
trip to Queen Elizabeth Forest Park near Aberfoyle to look at complex forest stands and
discuss the associated wind risk modelling challenges that come with multi-purpose
forestry.
There is a possibility of bringing your data and discussing and solving related issues.
The sign-up fee is £100 for non-students and £50 for students. All lunches will be
provided. An ice breaker event is planned for Monday the 8th of April for those who can be
there.
The number of participants is limited to 30.
Please save the date!
Registration is open at: IUFRO ForestGALES/fgr Workshop 2024 - Registration Form
