Dear colleagues,

Abstract submissions are now open for the session mountain forests under climate change (BG3.23) at the EGU General Assembly, 2020, in Vienna (Austria) from 3 to 8 May 2020.

We hope to gain a broad overview on global mountain forest ecosystems in the context of protection against natural hazards. Potential topics might include the monitoring and modelling of changing disturbance regimes or other expected (climate-induced) environmental changes, as well as human land use and societal requirements that potentially have a direct or indirect impact on the protective effects of mountain forests.

For more information please visit: https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2020/session/35239

Feel free to contact me or any of the other conveners if you have questions.


We look forward receiving your abstract until 15 Jan 2020, 13:00 CET and look forward to meet you at the EGU 2020.

Best regards

Christian Scheidl, Cornelius Senf, Michaela Teich, Micha Heiser and Julius Sebald
