Forest Pathology Subject Matter Committee (SMC) meeting, ICPP, Lyon, 24 August.

by Ramsfield, Tod

UNCLASSIFIED - NON CLASSIFIÉ Dear All, During the International Congress of Plant Pathology, 20 - 25 August 2023, in Lyon, France, the Forest Pathology subject matter committee will meet from 16:45 - 17:45 on Thursday, August 24, room Bellecour 1. In the programme on the congress website, the event is listed as "by invitation"; however, this meeting is open to all forest pathologists present in Lyon. We particularly invite graduate students who are attending the congress so that they may introduce themselves and their project to the forest pathology community. Opportunity will also be given for IUFRO working party representatives, and relevant society representatives, to make announcements. The primary objective of the meeting will be networking. The Forest Pathology subject matter committee is one of the many subject matter committees associated with the ICPP. There is a close association between this SMC and IUFRO Research Group 7.02, Forest Pathology. Prof. Irene Barnes, deputy of RG 7.02, has agreed to take over as SMC chair for the upcoming ICPP term and will chair the SMC meeting in Lyon. Best regards, Tod and Irene Tod Ramsfield, PhD Coordinator, IUFRO Division 7 - Forest Health Research Scientist Forest Pathology, Canadian Forest Service Natural Resources Canada / Government of Canada Tod.Ramsfield(a)NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca<mailto:Tod.Ramsfield@NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca> / Tel: 825-510-1303 Chercheur, Pathologie forestière, Service canadien des forêts Ressources naturelles Canada / Gouvernement du Canada Tod.Ramsfield(a)NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca<mailto:Tod.Ramsfield@NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca> / Tel : 825-510-1303

IUFRO 2024 Session 'Public engagement to keep urban trees and communities healthy'

by Hulbert, Joseph Michael

Greetings friends and colleagues, Apologies for cross posting. Please consider joining us in Sweden next June (2024) for a special session at the IUFRO 2024 World Congress. The session ‘Public engagement to keep urban trees and communities healthy’ (details below) is accepting both oral and poster presentations. Please note the deadline for abstract submissions is June 15, 2023. IUFRO XXVI World Congress Session in Stockholm Sweden, June 23-29 2024 (https://iufro2024.com/) Title: Public engagement to keep urban trees and communities healthy ID: 50013 Session type: Technical Duration: 120 minutes Congress theme: 4: Forests for sustainable societies Oral and poster presentations welcome! Organizers: Joey Hulbert1, Ana Perez-Sierra2, Rich Hallett3, Susan Hester4 1Washington State University, United States 2Forest Research, United Kingdom 3USDA Forest Service, United States 4University of Melbourne; University of New England, Australia Description: Much of the world’s populations live in cities where they rely on the services of healthy urban forests. Keeping city trees healthy is critical for mitigating the effects of heat waves and ensuring communities remain resilient to climate change. However, urban forests are often the front-lines against invasive pest introductions and their general presence in the built environment predisposes them to the effects of climate change. Given the density of people in urban environments, there is enormous opportunity for public engagement to monitor and study tree health. This session will highlight many projects and approaches for engaging communities in urban forest health research globally. Abstracts can be submitted at https://iufro2024.com/call-for-congress-abstracts/ Please feel free to contact me with any questions. We hope to see you there We are grateful for the extension of abstract submission deadline by the congress organizers.

XXVI IUFRO World Congress 2024 – session "Never waste pandemics: lessons learned from past forest disease outbreaks"

by Ari Hietala

Dear colleagues, In case you are planning to participate in the XXVI IUFRO World Congress in Stockholm, Sweden in 23-29 June 2024, please consider whether you would like to contribute to the session “Never waste pandemics: lessons learned from past forest disease outbreaks”. The session includes 15-minute talks and posters; submissions are now open: https://iufro2024.com/call-for-congress-abstract. Abstracts will be accepted until 2 June 2023. Never waste pandemics: lessons learned from past forest disease outbreaks Disturbances, whether abiotic or biotic in nature, are integral and necessary components of forest ecosystems. However, anthropogenic pressures and climate changes have contributed to the erosion of forest ecosystem resilience, frequently to a degree that the tipping point has been breached, this causing devastating consequences across landscapes, countries and even continents. With globalization and changes in climate patterns, both natural and planted forests are at risk from invasive exotic pathogens, which are exacerbated by extended drought cycles, extreme precipitation events and air pollution. As an example, owing to the scale of pandemic destruction, Ash dieback, Dutch Elm Disease, Chestnut Blight, along with White Pine Blister Rust, are, so far, among the most catastrophic biotic disturbances in forest. The list of devastating disturbances is long and novel drivers will keep arising in the globalized world due to ongoing climate warming. Experience so far tells that it is less costly to conserve nature than it is to restore it, so it is imperative we learn from experience to protect forests now. Our future relies on maintaining the ecosystem services provided by forest. The ongoing transition from a fossil fuel-based economy to a biobased economy is driven by the need to combat climate change, to protect the environment and to increase sustainability. This means we aim to meet the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. When governmental roadmaps towards more carbon-neutral economies are drafted, the focus, concerning forests, is often only on the increase of forested area and management practices that facilitate forest growth. The underlying assumption is that forests are healthy and in different phases of growth, a demography that allows the balancing needed between carbon sequestration and a continuous flow of the biogenic material needed. However, pest and pathogen outbreaks, as history has shown, can severely disrupt our ambitions. In this session, we welcome presentations that address how the underlying ecological, societal and institutional drivers have contributed to the rise and scale of specific disturbances. We hope to highlight assessments of currently implemented strategies considering the lessons learned from past pandemic crises. Similarly, we hope to outline management and policy options that are not yet in force or which have not yet attained that are not yet in place or not yet as but that would be needed to successfully prevent and/or to circumvent future pandemic crises. Keywords: Biotic, Climate Change, Disturbance, Resilience, Socio-ecology ORGANIZERS: Dr. Ari M.
