International Conference on Forests and Water in a Changing Environment

Top Scientists from Around the World Gathered at UBCO, Conference Chaired by Dr. Adam Wei

In 2015, UBC Okanagan hosted the fourth annual International Conference on Forests and Water in a Changing Environment. Top scientists from around the world gathered to talk about water availability, forestry and aquatic ecology and how they are affected by forest disturbance and climate change. Held once every 3 years, the conference provides an opportunity for international scientists who specialize in forest hydrology, eco-hydrology, geomorphology, watershed management, and climate change in forested environments to connect and share their research and knowledge, exchange ideas and develop international research collaborations.

The conference attracted researchers from around the world, with over 200 delegates from more than 20 countries.
