Time sensitive: assist w IUFRO task force proposal monitoring forest disease/insect outbreaks

by Brigitte Burger

Von: Geoffrey Williams - FS <geoffreywilliamsfs640(a)gmail.com> Gesendet: Montag, 25. November 2024 17:22 Betreff: [IUFRO RG 7.02 FORPATH] Time sensitive: assist w IUFRO task force proposal monitoring forest disease/insect outbreaks Dear colleagues, I am requesting your help on an IUFRO task force and a proposal this week. The concept note was approved, but the full proposal is due Nov 30. Henrik Hartmann previously led a task force on monitoring global tree mortality patterns and trends, and we would like to extend and integrate this with pest monitoring. The idea is to identify gaps in need of improvement internationally and coordinate efforts to integrate efforts internationally. I am currently leading the effort but transitioning to a new position that will likely make it difficult to coordinate the activities of the task force without help from other deputies. This task force would need help and to network with many of you and others internationally in any case. If you can help please reply ASAP. For background, here is a link that describes what a task force is. There is no $ involved, just plans to network and form a team to coordinate activities internationally toward a common goal: IUFRO: Task Forces / Science in IUFRO<https://www.iufro.org/science/task-forces/> We are seeking help from you on this proposal by the end of the week. Specifically, I would like to know * If you can serve as deputies helping to coordinate task force activities * If you can serve as a member of the task force * If you would like to help with the proposal, reply and I will send you a link to the proposal; currently, we want to have workshops/seminars to talk about integrating surveys, monitoring, remote sensing, and inventory efforts internationally, a list of sentinel tree monitoring programs and research internationally, and a database and/or standards to house information from them, as well as workshops, seminars, and publications integrating parallel or ongoing efforts. * If you can help coordinate team building activities or workshops through your institution(s)/agency(ies) over the next years - we can seek outside or inside funds for these as well - for example * Directory of sentinel monitoring efforts * Workshop on establishing standards and repositories for data from international sentinel monitoring programs * International workshop(s) on inventories and how to integrate them? * International workshop(s) on remote sensing programs and how to integrate them? * International workshop(s) on pest surveys and how to integrate them? * International workshop(s) on integrating inventories, remote sensing, and surveys internationally? * If you can help network with colleagues in China or the global south to be part of the proposed task force * Additional potential members of the task force Thanks for your last minute help Regards Geoff Williams, PhD International Sentinel Network Coordinator Forest Service International Programs Office of the Chief Office: +1 (202) 263-9231 WhatsApp: +1 (208) 874-7604 geoffrey.williams(a)usda.gov<mailto:geoffrey.williams@usda.gov> 2601 Coolidge Rd, Ste. 203 East Lansing, MI 48823 www.fs.fed.us<http://www.fs.fed.us/> www.fs.fed.us/about-agency/international-programs<http://www.fs.fed.us/about-agency/international-programs> Caring for the land and serving people

Research Scientist position in Ecology and forest insect invasions

by Christelle Robinet

*Research Scientist position in Ecology and forest insect invasions*** The Forest Zoology Research Unit(INRAE URZF <https://urzf.val-de-loire.hub.inrae.fr/>), located in Orléans in the Centre Val de Loire region (France), is expected to soon open a permanent research scientist position in the field of forest insect community ecology in the context of biological invasions. URZF studies the response of pest forest insect populations to anthropogenic changes, with two main research axes: (1) invasions of exotic insects linked to the intensification of human activities, and (2) expansions of native insects threatening plant or human health in connection with climate change. The invasive success of a species depends both on its "invasiveness" (currently studied in the unit) and on the "invasibility" of the recipient environment, /i.e./, its vulnerability to invasion. This issue involves hypotheses such as the biotic resistance hypothesis (a crucial question not yet addressed in our unit). If this researcher position is opened, your mission will be to study the invasibility of environments colonized by invasive forest insects, using concepts and tools from community ecology. The strengths of the unit include: - International recognition in the field of invasions/expansions, and co-leadership of a Franco-Chinese International Joint Laboratory, - Integration of multiple disciplinary approaches, - Dedicated infrastructures and facilities for laboratory and field experimentation. To apply, *visit the **INRAE Jobs* <https://jobs.inrae.fr/en/open-competitions/open-competitions-research-scien…>*website at the end of January or early February 2025*. To receive a notification by email on the opening date, you can create a job alert <https://jobs.inrae.fr/formulaire-alerte-campagne>now in just three clicks. *************************************** *Dr. Christelle ROBINET* Directrice de Recherche Directrice Adjointe de l'URZF INRAE Val de Loire, site d'Orléans Unité de Recherche Zoologie Forestière (URZF) 2163 Avenue de la Pomme de Pin - CS 40001 - Ardon 45075 Orléans cedex 2 FRANCE Tel: (+33) 02.38.41.80.38 Fax: (+33) 02.38.41.78.79 E-mail: christelle.robinet(a)inrae.fr <mailto:christelle.robinet@inrae.fr> https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Christelle_Robinet ***************************************

workshop on ambrosia symbiosis methods?

by Hulcr,Jiri

Deasr IUFRO colleagues, The UF Fungal systematics lab (Matt Smith) and the Forest entomology lab (Jiri Hulcr) are planning to run a short course "Summer School of Ambrosia Symbiosis". It will be in May and June 2025. We are also considering making it a bigger course and opening it to students from other institutions and overseas. Do you have/know students or colleagues who would be interested in a 6-week course here in Florida? It will be hands-on, supervised, and it will teach participants how to start isolating and studying ambrosia fungi using robust, contemporary methods and theory. If yes, would you kindly forward this questionnaire to folks who may be interested? https://ufl.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4TKMPKNkVdw7nzU This is totally non-binding; at this point, we are just assessing interest and people's financial capacity. Thank you so much in advance!
