Currently ongoing in Vienna is the 10th annual meeting of the specialist group on macroecology of the Ecological Society of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, entitled "Macroecology in Space and Time".

RESIN PI Rupert Seidl talked about emerging work in the potential impacts of novel disturbances from invasive alien pest species on forest carbon storage in Europe. The full authors and title of the talk are: Seidl, R., Klonner, G., Rammer, W., Essl, F., Moreno, A., Neumann, M., Dullinger, S.: The potential impact of invasive pests on carbon storage in Europe’s forests.
