<span style="color:black">the draft </span>agenda for the

</span>The overall theme of the meeting is "<b>Resilience:
Theory and Measurement at the Hubbard Brook Experimental
Forest.</b>" There will be a brief overview of ideas
regarding ecological resilience and how it might inform our
understanding of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem. However the
main goal is to foster discussion among the community of
scientists.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-family:calibri,sans-serif">Toward that end we
have planned break-out groups to explore the dimensions and
meanings of resilience. We have also listed questions
specific to Hubbard Brook research that are related to the
idea of resilience. If you have questions or topics of
interest, please send them along and we will include them in
an updated agenda. <span></span></span></p>
