Symposium 'Environmental Change in Siberia -- Insights From Earth Observation and Modeling'

eir impact on ecosystems,

  • the damage to trees by Siberian moth outbreaks,

  • changes in the snow and water cycle,

  • expected shifts in the tree species composition as a result of climate change,

  • the development of new ways of Greenhouse Gas Accounting to support international agreements like the Kyoto protocol

  • Geographical Information Systems, satellite data and computer models.

    Professor Balzter added:

    "Many of the scientists have worked together in previous European funded projects, like the SIBERIA project, which has mapped about 10 million hectares of forest at an unprecedented 50 m spatial resolution, and the SIBERIA-2 project, which has created the first full greenhouse gas accounting scheme of the terrestrial biosphere from a combined satellite remote sensing and vegetation modeling approach.

    "The symposium will comprise of 22 talks and 6 poster presentations, and conclude with discussion of the main scientific questions that need addressing and how this international research can be funded in the future in a joined up way."
