Dear all
As announced already the call for session is open. Then the best way to
begin the year is planning to attend a great IUFRO Conference in Argentina
in forested landscapes
Get ready then to be next October in Posadas!
Please visit the website with the preliminary information:
<http://iufro2018posadas.com/> http://iufro2018posadas.com/
October 1-5 Posadas, Argentina
Please spread the news in your networks!
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.
Within the framework of this Conference will focus on key topics to assess
problems but also to find solutions towards a better future of forested
landscapes
Call for sessions and Forums is open NOW
http://iufro2018posadas.com/call-for-sessions-and-forums/
Please see information attach. and visit the site for further details
Call for abstracts will be launched end of February
Please note also the call for discussion forums on "Challenges of
sustainable development: implications for the future of forests and forested
landscapes" Looking forward for original ideas on knowledge sharing!
See you all this year in Argentina!
My warmest wishes

Subject: US-IALE 2018 (Chicago) abstracts due soon!
The call for presentations for the 2018 Landscape Ecology (US-IALE)
conference is open: http://www.usiale.org/call-for-presentations.html
The 2018 US-IALE Annual Meeting will take place in Chicago Illinois on
April 8-12. We now welcome abstract submissions for contributed oral
presentations and poster presentations. The deadline to submit an abstract
is Friday, December 15, 2017 at 11:59 p.m. EST.
The scientific program will consist of three types of sessions: Organized
Symposia (a series of integrated presentations that address aspects of a
single topic or theme, submitted as an organized group of speakers);
Contributed Oral Presentations (individual oral presentations that are
grouped into sessions by conference organizers); and Poster Presentations.
Contributed Oral and Poster presentations will be grouped with similar
presentations to form thematic sessions. The topics you select are used to
create these groupings. Oral presentation authors also have the option of
indicating interest in an Organized Symposium, either as an invited
speaker, or if you want your talk to be considered for a particular
symposium. Visit the "Symposia Overview" page for details and options
(http://www.usiale.org/symposia.html) NOTE: Invited speakers of an
Organized Symposium must submit their individual presentation abstract
using this online form.
Notifications of acceptance will be sent by the end of December and the
schedule will be posted in January 2018. All presenters will need to
register and pay for the conference shortly thereafter.
If you have questions, or need assistance filling out the online submission
form or withdrawing a proposal, please contact Meg Boera at
