SUMMARY:2022 WG2 Meeting
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nFire effects on Fauna and Vegetation Group Meeting \nCOST FIRELINKS\, 9th – 10th March 2022\, Mallorca\, Menut \n  \nECOGEOMORPHOLOGICAL CONNECTIVITY AS A TOOL  \nIN POST-FIRE CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \nVenue and accommodation (organized by local host Joan Estrany and MEDhyCON Research Team; http://medhycon.uib.cat) – Balearic Forestry Center\, located in the middle of the Tramuntana Range (Escorca)\, http://www.caib.es/sites/xarxaforestal/ca/informacio-19072/\, nearby the famous Lluc Sanctuary (http://lluc.net). \nRATIONALE \nNowadays\, the important improvements of remote sensing equipment (hyperspectral\, multispectral\, thermal and LiDAR) as well as modelling image algorithms (Structure from Motion\, SfM) let to simultaneous acquisition of vegetation and soil dynamic information that could be integrated to manage the landscape at higher spatial and temporal resolutions\, and concretely to design effective strategies for post-fire habitat restoration. Under this context\, the connectivity –as a synthetic approach between ecology\, hydrology and geomorphology– may provide the framework to reconcile the disparity between erosion rates measured at small spatial scales with rates of denudation at larger spatial scales as well as evaluate cost-effective strategies for catchment management. Thus\, for effective management and intervention in catchments a process-based understanding of connectivity is required so that: i) conceptual rather than solely empirical understanding drives how managers interpret a system; and ii) there is an understanding of how continuous flow fields develop under different sets of environmental conditions to enable managers to know when\, where and how to intervene successfully in catchment processes to achieve sustainable management. Connectivity is defined as the transfer of matter between two different landscape compartments. In the case of sediment\, connectivity encompasses the connected transfer of sediment from a source to a sink in a system via sediment detachment and sediment transport\, controlled by how the sediment moves between all geomorphic zones in a landscape. This framework may therefore provide details on how hydrological and sediment movement vectors interact with vegetation to better understand the sensitivity of a catchment to external forces such as wildfires. \nPost-fire restoration assessment and management is an urgent and required task to minimize the effects of wildfires in southern Europe\, as well an increasing concern for the centre and northern European countries due to the environment effects imposed by the climatic change. It is not really new the importance of the link between plants and soil\, however at ecosystem scales this topic was not developed at all\, mostly due to the technological and methodological limits. \nIt is important to take in mind that vegetation is an active factor that can modify by itself the own sediment connectivity\, acting as sediment traps\, reducing surface energy fluxes and modifying slopes as well soil type and structure. When sediment connectivity is reduced and vegetation covers most of the catchment growth in this case will be also vegetation growth and development will be driven by biotic factors as the own species competence. \nIn the meeting to be held the next 9th and 10th of March 2022 in Menut (https://www.caib.es/sites/xarxaforestal/ca/informacio-19072/)\, Serra de Tramuntana\, Mallorca\, Spain\, we plan to discuss -in the forefront of earth systems sciences- the interactions between external factors such as wildfires\, vegetation and soils under the ecogeomorphological connectivity paradigm\, from ecophysiological plant-truth data measurements up to remote-sensing data\, in association with continuous monitoring of water\, sediment and associated contaminant fluxes in burned catchments. \nMAIN TASKS FOR THE PARTICIPANTS \n\nA short presentation of 20-30 minutes about their topic.\nDiscussion after each presentation.\nProposal of a chapter or paper per participants/teams for a book or Special Issue respectively which will be submitted after the meeting (achievement necessary for the COST Action).\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_tta_tour border_width=”2″ no_fill_content_area=”1″ add_shadows=”yes” tab_shadow_active=”d1|#000000||||0|box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0\, 0\, 0\, 0.2)\,0 1px 1px rgba(0\, 0\, 0\, 0.14)\,0 2px 1px -1px rgba(0\, 0\, 0\, 0.12)” tab_shadow_inactive=”d2|#000000||||0|box-shadow: 0 1px 5px rgba(0\, 0\, 0\, 0.2)\,0 2px 2px rgba(0\, 0\, 0\, 0.14)\,0 3px 1px -2px rgba(0\, 0\, 0\, 0.12)”][vc_tta_section tab_id=”1562497423697-09138465-05b2″ title=”Tuesday\, March 8″][vc_column_text] \nParticipants arrival\, and transport to the Menut facilities (Balearic Forestry Center).  Dinner together at Lluc´s Village (5 min by car from Menut). \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Wednesday\, March 9″ tab_id=”1643979683321-5e165fd0-5da2″][vc_column_text] \nFrom 08:00 Breakfast \n09:00 – 9:30 Opening\, introduction of the program and participants \n09:30 – 10:30 Presentations and discussion of participants \n10:30 – 11:00 Coffee break \n11:00 – 12:30 Presentations and discussion of participants \n12:30 – 13:30 Lunch \n13:30 – 19:00 Excursion to Andratx burned catchment (monitoring of erosion and vegetation recovery)\, led by MEDhyCON Team \n20:00 Dinner in Lluc \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Thursday\, March 10″ tab_id=”1645339239124-3980bad6-90fb”][vc_column_text] \nFrom 08:00 Breakfast \n09:00 – 10:30 Discussion on COST deliverable Ecogeomorphological connectivity as a tool in post-fire catchment management applicable in different environmental conditions\, methodological approaches aiming at low-cost\, operational workflow applicable in nature conservation \n10:30 – 11:00 Coffee break \n11:00 – 12:30 Brainstorming on future possible collaborations.

SUMMARY:Sardinia 2020 WG5 Meeting
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]During thousands of years\, Sardinia\, as other Mediterranean regions\, developed a socio-ecological mosaic landscape composed by agriculture\, forest and shrublands. Nowadays\, the idea of mosaic is still considered as one of the best infrastructures to mitigate the impact of natural hazards\, such us wildfires\, pests and flooding. However\, in the last 60 years\, the migrations due to industrialization from rural to urban areas\, caused a devaluation of rural economies and led to rural abandonment. The impacts of this abandonment are still very visible in the land\, thus dense forest and shrublands now occupy the traditionally managed landscapes. These unmanaged lands generate a much higher risk\, e.g. of large wildfires\, for rural communities and also for urban population living in wildland urban interfaces under highly vulnerable conditions.\nUnderstanding the way societies need to co-exist with natural risks\, enhancing risk mitigation from a bottom-up approach\, encouraging actions done by local communities and discussing the best way to apply traditional land management\, are key actions needed in order to improve risk management. To succeed\, all these actions shall be linked to a sustainable economic model that is not only based in the economic values\, but a model that includes other values contributing to build resilient landscapes and societies.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Download the meeting flyer.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \n1 st Working Group 5 Meeting & Workshop with stakeholders\nAssociazione Badde Salighes 1879\,\n24 and 27 March 2020 \n[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_tour][vc_tta_section title=”Day 1″ tab_id=”1562497423697-09138465-05b2″][vc_column_text]8:30 – 10:00 Registration.
