SeaScape Ecology: Connecting Land, Sea and Society in connection with the International Association of Landscape Ecology/UK (IALE UK).
The SeaScape Ecology conference will take place on 7-8 September, 2015, at the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Innovation (ECCI), with a conference dinner on the 8th. The conference will be followed by a field trip to the John Muir Country Park in East Lothian on the 9th of September.
Seascape ecology is the application of landscape ecology to the marine and coastal environment. This conference will focus on the emerging shift towards linking both sides of the coastal margin, and how this can help to restore habitat connectivity and protect coastal and marine systems from environmental degradation. Presentations are welcome from across science, policy and practice. We encourage submissions from policy makers, consultants, practitioners and researchers. Symposia will include regular 12-minute presentations, followed by a few questions and short 5-minute flash presentations. We also welcome posters, which will be on display throughout the conference, with the opportunity for discussion during the breaks and in a dedicated poster session before the conference dinner on Tuesday.
Please note Abstracts are due by 30th April.
