Abstract categories:

Abstracts should contain a 1) short statement of the research problem and its background and relevance, 2) the research objective, 3) a brief description of methods, 4) significant results, and 5) a conclusion.  Abstracts should be submitted in plain text and should be no longer than 400 words.  Email abstracts in word or pdf format to Nathan@bu.edu. Please select one of the following categories for your submission:

 

  • Processes underlying regional forest responses to environmental change I: environmental change and carbon, water, and nutrient cycling. (Processes I)
  • Processes underlying regional forest responses to environmental change II: land use change, forest age/size mosaics, biodiversity and biotic invasions. (Processes II)
  • Geography of Regional Forest Responses to Environmental change: unique attributes of environments, environmental change, and forest structure and function in differing world regions. (Regional Geography)
  • Phenological changes in forests, their mechanistic basis, and impact on forest function (Phenology)
  • Tools to measure, differentiate, and integrate canopy processes (e.g., remote sensing, isotopes, gas exchange, sap flow, ecohydrologic monitoring, sensor networks, canopy access) (Tools I)
  • Tools to assimilate, model and scale canopy processes data from leaf to region (Tools II)
