The ForestDSS CoP has a well-established users’ community with members from research, public bodies, business and NGOs of existing FP 7 projects and Cost Actions (FORSYS, ECHOS, ForestModels). The CoP connects and mobilizes developers and users of forest DSS to support the planning and sustainable use of forest resources. The website www.forestdss.org goes now online.
We invite applications to conduct research in the area of forests and natural resources management planning (e.g. wildfire risk management, climate change impact assessment, multiple criteria methods, decision support systems) in the framework of the PhD program 'SUSFOR - Sustainable Forests and Products' at the Instituto Superior de Agronomia in Lisbon, Portugal. The call is opened between November 4 and November 30, 2013. The official language of the SUSFOR programme is English.
