Name: Tropical Rainforests and Agroforests under Global Change
Date of beginning: 2008-10-05
Date of ending: 2008-10-09
Description : Tropical rainforests disappear at an alarming rate causing unprecedented losses
in biodiversity and ecosystem services. Despite an increased recognition of the value
of these goods at national and international levels, rainforests continue to be
seriously threatened by human-induced global change such as agricultural
intensification and climate change. Understanding these processes needs an
integrated scientific approach linking ecological, economic and social approaches at
different scales, from the household and village level to landscapes and regions.
