We are pleased to announce that the “European Conference of Tropical Ecology” and the Annual Conference of the Society for Tropical Ecology (Gesellschaft für Tropenökologie, gtö) in 2018 will be hosted by the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle/UPMC/Académie des Sciences-COPED, Sorbonne Universités, Paris. The overarching topic will be "Challenges in tropical ecology and conservation - global perspectives". The conference will take place from Monday 26 to Thursday 29 March 2018 at the Centre International de Conférences Sorbonne Universités (CICSU) of the University Pierre-Marie Curie and at the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris historic center. The annual conference of the Society for Tropical Ecology (gtö) will provide an interdisciplinary platform for discussing these major challenges and future opportunities in tropical Ecology including: Understanding tropical biodiversity at all spatial and taxonomical scales; Defining resilient tropical ecosystems; Novel approaches to understand and manage tropical ecosystems; Conservation and restoration of tropical ecosystems. ...

The community of people engaged in the science of ecology is transforming, bringing important new perspectives into the field. Inclusive approaches to ecology can build bridges between theory and practice, connect those working in disparate landscapes and subdisciplines, and incorporate diverse perspectives. Such approaches support ecologists and the ecological community as a whole as they articulate socio-environmental connections, address widespread ecosystem change, take advantage of technological advancements that provide unprecedented access to data and new analytical techniques, and engage in interdisciplinary collaborations. ...

Two centuries ago Alexander von Humboldt explored the linkages between geology, ecology, and diversity, and laid one of the cornerstones of biogeography. The 2019 IBS Special Meeting and the 2nd Latin American Congress of Biogeography celebrate the 250th anniversary of Humboldt's birth and his legacy. This academic celebration will take place in Ecuador, one of the most symbolic and relevant places in Humboldt´s studies, as exemplified by his Naturgemälde. The event is organized by the IBS, Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ), Universidad Regional Amazónica IKIAM, and the Latin American Network for the Study of Neotropical Biogeography (Red-BioN), and will be housed at USFQ, in Quito, Ecuador. ...

We are pleased to announce the 49th Annual Meeting of the Ecological Society of Germany, Austria and Switzerland, which will be held September 9-13, 2019 at the Institute of Landscape Ecology, University of Muenster (WWU). Several interesting keynotes for the conference have already been approved, including Julie Etterson (Duluth, USA), Carly Stevens (Lancaster, UK), Nancy Schellhorn (Brisbane, Australia), Kris Verheyen (Ghent, Belgium) and Andy Dobson (Princeton, USA). The Institute of Landscape Ecology at the University of Münster traditionally collaborates closely with a range of conservation organizations, agriculture, forestry and practitioners and involves them in academic research projects. The 49th Annual Meeting is therefore held under the motto "Science meets practice" and aims to stimulate exchange between the academic ecological community and practitioners in order to find applied solutions to environmental problems. ...

We proudly invite you to Cape Town for the 8th World Conference on Ecological Restoration from 22-27 September 2019, jointly hosted by the Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) and the South African Water Research Commission. The conference theme for SER2019 is Restoring Land, Water & Community Resilience. Inspired in part by the South African experience with Working for Water and related initiatives, the theme is intended to help keep discussion about developments in restoration research, practice, and policy focused on the big picture. Conference sessions will be organized around a number of regionally and globally important sub-themes, and will include symposia, workshops, and open sessions, as well as plenary sessions and a dedicated poster session. One of the principal sub-themes of the program will focus on how ecological restoration can help improve water supply and water security – not only in a severely drought-impacted region like the Western Cape, but in ecosystems and landscapes all over the world as climate change and degradation increasingly threaten water resources. ...

Welcome to ECSA’s next major symposium, ECSA 56 Coastal systems in transition: From a 'natural' to an 'anthropogenically-modified' state, which will take place from the 4-7 September 2016 in Bremen, Germany.Humans are drivers of and affected by global change. Human-induced global climate and regional environmental change dramatically modify the structures and functions of coastal systems driving them into a new system state. The altered resource potentials and ecosystem services then, in turn, significantly affect the livelihoods of the population.Distinguishing between natural and anthropogenic control factors and quantifying their impacts is a major challenge in the investigation of hydrodynamic, sedimentological, biogeochemical, ecological and socioeconomic processes in the coastal zone.Inter- and transdisciplinary efforts are required to gain a profound understanding of these "novel" systems, which provides the basis for a sustainable management.ECSA 56 brings together a global multi-disciplinary community of researchers and professionals to discuss and address issues of outstanding scientific importance in the science and management of estuaries and coastal seas in this rapidly changing world. ...
