In the light of the scope of this conference, we particularly welcome contributions from long term monitoring networks, such as sister networks under the UNECE Working Group on Effects, ICOS, eLTER, DANUBIUS, ACTRIS, and AnaEE. We aim for a balanced program comprising traditional evaluations as well as the latest approaches using remote sensing techniques.

Our goal is to stimulate an inspiring discussion on future monitoring, integrating information from the range of monitoring networks with a whole system approach.
