Herbivory Network Workshop: Emerging priorities in terrestrial herbivory research in the Arctic
After 10 years of contributing to circumpolar research on plant-herbivore interactions, the Herbivory Network is using a horizon scan to identify research priorities in Arctic herbivory for the coming decade, as a contribution to the ICARP IV (Fourth International Conference on Arctic Research Planning – 2025) process.
For this exciting aim, Herbivory Network organized a one-day in-person workshop in Lund, as part of the Nordic Oikos Society conference, to refine the emerging themes and determine key action points for Arctic herbivory research in the next decade, based on feedback received from Arctic herbivory experts through an online survey.
You can find more information about the project here. A total of 26 researchers participated in the workshop, and their discussions will be presented as a contribution to ICARP IV.
This project has been endorsed by the International Arctic Science Committee as an ICARP IV activity. Support for this workshop has been made available by the Terrestrial Working Group of the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC).
