International Workshop
“ Monitoring of Forest Ecosystems: Where Do We Stand?”
- Place: Tokyo, Japan
- Date: 2 – 3 December 2013
- Venue: Institute of Industrial Science (IIS), the University of Tokyo [Map]
- Organizer: Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute (FFPRI) & Institute of Industrial Science (IIS), the University of Tokyo
Aims of the workshop
The aims of the workshop are refinement of our knowledge using network data as follows:
- Monitoring of carbon dyanmics
- Forest structure, biodiversity and dynamics based on long-term ecological data
The Committees of the WS expect participants to input some above-mentioned information from following 2 projects.
- “Advancement of East Asia Forest Dynamics Plots Network -Monitoring forest carbon cycling for the development of climate change adaptation-” [GERANI, MOEJ: FY2009-2013; PL: Dr Tamotsu SATO]
- “Carbon Dynamics of Amazonian Forests (CADAF)” [SATREPS, JST/JICA: FY2009-2013 PL: Dr Moriyoshi ISHIZUKA]
