Dear IUFRO 1.05 Uneven-aged Silviculture Research Group Members:
This is another update with information for our Uneven-aged
Silviculture Research Group. As before, my goal is to send out a
similar update several times each year. Please forward this email to
interested persons who might not be on this mailing list and
encourage them to join the list server as indicated below.
Recent Meetings:
Our recent meeting in Shizuoka was a huge success. Congratulations
to Hiromi Mizunaga and the Executive and Science Committees on a very
well-organized meeting. There were over 100 participants and these
included representatives from 20 countries. In the ten conference
sessions, there were 99 presentations and five keynote
presentations. The conference also included very successful pre- and
post-conference tours The meeting also was successful in expanding
our Research Group's inclusion of scientists working on tropical
forests and from developing countries. Once again, everyone involved
in the organization of this conference deserves a lot of credit for
their hard work and the success of the meeting.
A selection of papers from the conference will be reviewed for
publication in a forthcoming issue of the Journal of Forest Research
in late 2009.
IUFRO CONGRESS

Future Meetings
We would like to hold our next meeting in 2010 but are looking for
possible locations and hosts. If you would like to host our next

Dear IUFRO 1.05 Uneven-aged Silviculture Research Group Members:
The primary objective behind this email is to remind you that the
deadline for abstract submission to our upcoming meeting in Shizuoka,
Japan is 31 May 2008, or in just few weeks!
The conference theme is Feasibility of Silviculture for Complex Stand
Structures: Designing Stand Structures for Sustainability and
Multiple Objectives. Early registration is through 31 July, 2008.
Dr. Hiromi Mizunaga is leading the effort to host this meeting
(contact email: mizunaga(a)agr.shizuoka.ac.jp). Both preconference and
postconference tours are tentatively planned as well as an
in-conference tour day. There will also be an opportunity to submit
conference papers to the peer-reviewed "Journal of Forest Research".
The timing of the meeting is intended to coincide with some of the
best weather around Mt. Fuji. This will be our Research Group's first
meeting outside Europe or North America. For more information see the
conference website:
http://www.ffpri.affrc.go.jp/symposium/uneven-aged2008/index.html .

22-28 August 2010, XXIII IUFRO World Congress,
Seoul, Republic of Korea, "Forests for the
Future: Sustaining Society and the Environment"
Note that a call for congress themes has been issued:
The IUFRO Congress Scientific Committee (CSC)
invites all IUFRO members and officeholders to
submit suggestions for the themes for the 2010 Congress.
In keeping with the forward-looking spirit of the
Congress title, "Forests for the Future:
Sustaining Society and the Environment", we hope
that with your involvement we can develop a set
of approximately 10 themes that will focus the
contributions that forest science is making to
adapt to our changing world and address the
significant environmental, social and economic challenges facing society.
Suggested themes should be concise, informative,
attractive, and hopefully exciting to a broad
audience within and outside of IUFRO, preferably
interdisciplinary and spanning the social and biophysical sciences.
Our Congress themes will be used as the basis for
the development of the scientific program
plenary, sub-plenary, and technical sessions so
we welcome your input into this process to ensure
that the 2010 Congress will serve the broad
interests of the IUFRO community its member
organizations, scientists and students and
enhance our position as the global leader for forest science.
The CSC will consider all suggestions for the
Congress themes received by February 29th, 2008.
These should be sent directly to John Parrotta
(CSC Chair) at: jparrotta(at)fs.fed.us
Future Uneven-aged Silviculture meetings: We
continue to look for opportunities to add to the
geographical diversity in our Research Group and
to involve researchers working on tropical
forests. We would also like to receive
suggestions on, or offers to host, future
meetings. It isn't too early to be planning a meeting for 2009 or 2010.
Publications:
The Forum Feature of papers from our 2006 meeting
in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec have been published in
the September 2007 issue of the Canadian Journal
of Forest Research (volume 37, issue 9). Maya
thanks to Brian Harvey and Simon Landhäusser for
their editorial work for this issue.
