IBFRA2023 Call for Abstracts 

The submission process for abstracts is now open for the International Boreal Forest Research Association IBFRA Conference 28-31 August 2023 in Helsinki Finland on Climate Resilient and Sustainable Forest Management. 

The boreal forest, which is the second most extensive terrestrial biome on earth, is experiencing environmental changes at rates that are unprecedented. Changing climates are increasing disturbances such as wildfires or insect outbreaks. Many boreal ecosystems are shifting to new ecological states, affecting the people who are relying on these ecosystems for subsistence living, cultural practices, economic development or climate stability. This is why the 20th IBFRA conference is focused on Climate resilient and sustainable forest management.

Conference themes are

1. Understanding linkages between ecosystem processes and management
2. From data acquisition to knowledge creation
3. Gameful forest interaction
4. Decision support tools and solutions for sustainable forestry
5. Science-policy interphase

We invite abstract submissions for both oral and poster presentations. Please submit your abstract by 30 January 2023. For more information www.ibfra2023.org
