Registration Open: LANDIS-II Training


Registration is open for a multi-day LANDIS-II training at Harvard Forest (April 8-10, 2014). The LANDIS-II model simulates forest succession, disturbance (including fire, wind, harvest, insects), climate change, and seed dispersal across large landscapes. Workshop topics will include parameterization, simulating landscapes, and analyzing outputs.
Instructors: Melissa Lucash, Harvard Forest post-doctoral fellow Matthew Duveneck, and Harvard Forest senior ecologist Jonathan Thompson.
Cost for basic training (April 8-9) is $325. More advanced Century Extension training, on April 10, is $75. Lodging is available at the Harvard Forest. Training comes with a complimentary copy of the new LANDIS-II training manual. Register early, as the workshop is limited to 15 participants.
