Upcoming Forest and Water Conference -
September 14-16, 2009 in Raleigh, North Carolina


September 14, 2009 - September 16, 2009

The Southern Global Change Program (SGCP) hosts The 2nd International Conference on Forests and Water in a Changing Environment" on September 14-16, 2009 in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Abstract submission deadline: March 31, 2009

Global climate change has resulted in a series of chain reactions in the watershed ecohydrological processes. Growing concerns over watershed degradation, water scarcity, and ecosystem sustainability due to climate change require new approaches to managing forest water resources. Unfortunately, little science-based guidance is available for forest managers and policy makers adapting to climate change.

At this 2nd conference we will continue to discuss forest-water relations and changing environmental conditions. The goal of this symposium is to provide a forum for experts from around the world on eco-hydrology, restoration ecology, forest ecology, watershed management and global change sciences to share knowledge and research experiences, and develop long-term international collaborations on watershed research.

Key Conference Deadline Dates:

Abstracts due: March 31, 2009
Acceptance letters mailed: April 15, 2009
Registration due: July 1, 2009
Full papers for special issue Ecohydrology due: November 1, 2009
