– the International Co-operative Programme on Assessment and Monitoring of Air Pollution Effects on Forests operating under the UNECE Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (CLRTAP) –
ICP Forests was launched in 1985 under the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (Air Convention, formerly CLRTAP) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) in response to wide public and political concern over extensive forest damage that had been observed in Europe in the beginning of the 1980s. ICP Forests monitors forest condition in Europe at two monitoring intensity levels: The Level I monitoring is based on around 6000 observation plots on a systematic transnational grid of 16 x 16 km throughout Europe and beyond to gain insight into the geographic and temporal variations in forest condition while the Level II intensive monitoring comprises around 500 plots in selected forest ecosystems with the aim to clarify cause-effect relationships. At present 42 countries participate in ICP Forests.
The 1st Announcement of the International Cross-Comparison Course Crown Condition with detailed information on this meeting has been published. More information on the ICP Forests website.
Best wishes

Dear colleagues,
The deadline for abstract submission to the XXV IUFRO World Congress has been extended to 10 January 2019.
Once again, we would like to advertise session B4g on Long-Term Forest Monitoring Networks for Evaluating Responses to Environmental Change.
The session aims to attract scientists, managers and stakeholders who are keen to understand large-scale, long-term effects of rapidly changing environmental drivers on forest ecosystems, to advance forest monitoring systems from local to global scale. The session offers the opportunity to present latest research findings, address methodological issues, and outline solutions based on the comprehensive data series from long-term forest monitoring networks world-wide, such as ICP Forests, EANET, ICOS, ILTER, AnaEE, ENFIN, TERN and others.
Congress registration and abstract submission at:…
