The EFIATLANTIC annual meeting will celebrate simultaneously the transformation of the unit from a regional office to the Planted Forest Facility and the 20th anniversary of the extremely supportive regional network of actors IEFC.
This will be followed by a scientific seminar dedicated to Global Change and associated risks, exploring trends and preparedness in the planted forests of Europe.
This seminar will provide an opportunity to address some of the main issues affecting Portuguese forests such as fires, nematodes and eucalyptus weevil. It will also provide an overview of European initiatives to mitigate these risks, and the improvement of the different risk management plans proposed within the PLURIFOR project.
Organised with the support of ISA and USSE.
