Hello Biogeosciences section members,
I hope you're getting excited for the ESA meeting in Louisville. Please
also remember that we are looking for judges for presentations at the
upcoming ESA meeting. Email us here (esabiogeoscience@xxxxxxxxx) if you
think you can participate.
We also encourage strong interactions with AGU. This fall will be AGU's
centennial. Below, there are two special sections that are relevant to our
community and have been brought to our attention.
Have a great rest of your week!

We invite abstract submissions to a special session at the American
Geophysical Union (AGU) 2019 fall meeting in San Francisco, CA focused on
disturbances in boreal forest ecosystems.
Session ID: 80445
Session Title B028: Causes and consequences of changing disturbance regimes
in boreal forests across the globe
Section: Biogeosciences
Session Abstract: Arctic and sub-arctic boreal forests are warming at an
accelerated rate compared to the rest of the globe. Coincident with this
warming have been changes in disturbance regimes, including increased
wildfire activity, insect and pathogen outbreaks, and permafrost
thermokarsting, which can disrupt forest ecosystem structure, composition,
and function, and affect forest recovery. Boreal forest resiliency
post-disturbance could have large consequences for global climate because
of complex biogeophysical feedbacks that impact carbon sequestration,
hydrological cycling, and surface energy fluxes. To better understand the
interacting processes that determine boreal forest resiliency and
vulnerability following disturbance and feedbacks to the climate system, we
invite contributions from scientists whose research focuses on the causes
and consequences of changing disturbance regimes in boreal forests across
the globe. Presentations can address any spatial or temporal scale, from
microbial to remotely sensed landscape-level processes affected by the
relationships between climate, disturbance, and vegetation in the boreal
forest.
