The theme is quantitative modeling for managing natural resources in an era of climate change.
Four keynote speakers will address the use of mathematical models to study biodiversity and the effects of climate change on various ecosystems and offer recommendations for managing them in a sustainable manner. The keynote speakers are Hugh Possingham, Garciela Ana Canziani, Jim Cushing, and Shandelle M. Henson.
We anticipate some support for students and also offer generous cash prizes for student presentations and posters. A refereed special issue of the journal Natural Resource Modeling will be edited by Catherine A. Roberts.
