The International Society for Ecological Modelling Global Conference 2025 will be held under the theme ‘From Data to Decision: Empowering Ecosystem Management through Modelling’. It will highlight the pivotal role of advanced ecological modelling in transforming diverse datasets into decision making and actionable management strategies.
In the face of escalating global challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and resource depletion or degradation, this conference will focus on the development of quantitative and qualitative tools and strategies that not only safeguard ecosystems but also enhance their resilience and promote future sustainability.
In today's rapidly changing environmental landscape, the abilities to utilize big data and to convert diverse and complex data into actionable insights is essential. This conference will provide a platform for ecological modelers to refine their concepts and methodologies, advancing ecological theory across a broad range of topics and modelling techniques.
It will also highlight how cutting-edge modelling techniques can be employed to analyze and interpret data from multiple sources. By integrating these diverse data streams, ecological models can help forecast ecosystems under future scenarios, evaluate potential management actions, and guide sustainable ecosystem management decisions.
The theme also emphasizes the importance of empowering ecosystem management through these models, ensuring that decision-makers have the insights needed to take informed, proactive measures. By focusing on future strategies, the conference aims to foster interdisciplinary collaborations that unite technological innovations with ecological knowledge, promoting a holistic approach to ecosystem management.
Discussions will explore paths to sustainable practices that balance human needs with environmental well-being, highlighting the pivotal role of modelling in projection, assessing risks, and building resilient ecosystems for next generations.
The conference will offer a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in ecological modelling and address the key challenges associated with effectively implementing adaptive management strategies.
