Conference

The 5th International Marine Connectivity Conference (iMarCo2019) is to be held at the University of Aveiro, Portugal, September 23-25, 2019.

The 49th West European Fish Technologists Association (WEFTA) Conference will take place in Tórshavn, Faroe Islands in October 2019. The WEFTA conference provides a platform for food scientists, PhD students and fish processing industries to present their latest research achievements and share valuable experiences in the field of fish industry and aquatic products, quality and safety. This year's theme is 'Blue Value Creation, Bioeconomy, Health and Safety'.

Submissions for communications are invited for the following areas: 

Bringing together approximately 150 scientists from countries all over the world, this 5-yearly symposium covers all domains where atmosphere and water meet, which include but are not limited to, fresh water, estuarine, mountain, glacial, marine (coastal and open ocean) and polar regions.

The international conference on 'Climate change in the Asia-Pacific region: from environmental aspects to socioeconomic impacts' will take place in Quy Nhon (Vietnam) in March 2020. The conference will focus on interdisciplinary studies, and will regroup specialists from all of the disciplines involved in the study of climate change impacts. The components of the regional socio-environmental system are strongly interconnected, with interactions within the climate system, as well as between environment and society.

Environmental global changes are occurring at unprecedented rates and scales. Worldwide studies and monitoring programmes have been collecting data that should be analysed in order to put in evidence long-term trends and to explore spatial and temporal comparisons.

The 6th International EcoSummit Congress, EcoSummit 2020 - Building a sustainable and desirable future: Adapting to a changing land and sea-scape, will take place at The Gold Coast Convention Centre, Australia in June 2020.

The 2^nd International Congress of Young Marine Researchers will be held in Malaga (Spain) this October. The Congress, organised by and for young marine researchers, seeks to promote and bolster the research from young scientists into the marine field in order to generate a meeting space among different marine related disciplines, building novel synergy and cooperation among participants.

The 54th European Marine Biology Symposium will be held in Dublin, and is hosted by University College Dublin in the state-of-the-art O’Brien Centre for Science. 

2019 is the International Year of the Salmon, a fish that has a special place in the mythology of Ireland.  Look out for salmon throughout the scientific and social programme.

In addition to the traditional general session covering any and all aspects of marine biology, we will focus on the follow themes:

Blue Growth

The aim of the conference is to raise awareness on the benefits and opportunities of Baltic mussel production and use, and furthermore establish a Baltic mussel farming Working Group that works to maximise these benefits in the Baltic Sea Region.

The 22nd biennial conference of The International Society for Ecological Modelling (ISEM), under the theme eco:model:spaces, will bring together scientists from all professions and applications that deal with the use of ecological models and systems ecology.
