The International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) is beginning the development of a global vegetation model. In April 1988, a major international workshop summarized and evaluated available concepts, data, and formalisms. An extended workshop during June and July reviewed findings of the April meeting and other background information. From this review, a framework for analyzing global vegetation dynamics and responses to environmental change was designed. A core plant growth module was derived and implemented.
