* The conference on the 29th will include presentations on recent updates and future plans for the LANDIS model. There will also be break-out groups to discuss and plan for specific needs. These discussions are critical for determining the near term investments we collectively make in the LANDIS framework.
All events will happen at the Pyle Center <http://conferencing.uwex.edu/about/pyle-center/> http://conferencing.uwex.edu/about/pyle-center/ on the UW Campus.

Dear IUFRO Landscape Ecology WP members,
Please keep in mind that the deadline for the submission of proposals
for sessions at the IUFRO 2018 Posadas conference on "Adaptive
Management for Forested Landscapes in transformation" is February 3,
2018. Also, forum proposals need to be submitted until March 20, 2018.
This conference will highlight accelerated changes imprinted in our
planet within the Anthropocene. Transformation of forest use that is
occurring in response to the pressures of globalization, population
growth, resource scarcity and ecological degradation are part of the
BIG challenges ahead. Biodiversity is essential to human well-being,
but people have been reducing biodiversity throughout human history.
Loss of species and degradation of ecosystems are likely to further
accelerate in the coming years. Nonetheless, global goals to reduce
the rate of biodiversity loss have mostly not been achieved. It is
essential to take into account ecological, economic and functional
values of the landscape to improve planning and decision-making.
Operational solutions are needed to reconciling biodiversity
conservation in the light of increasing demands of natural resources
and land.
