Ecological research and training for conservation

Introduction to the conference

Dear friends and colleagues

In 2011, we organised the first international conference on Spatial Ecology & Conservation (SEC1). Over 200 scientists and conservation practitioners from around the world came to discuss and evaluate the latest advances in spatial ecology and associated technologies, and how these could best be deployed to underpin conservation (see the SEC1 proceedings). At that first meeting, we agreed to hold a conference every three years to report progress, assess needs and present new findings. On behalf of the conference committee, I am delighted to welcome you to our second international meeting: Spatial Ecology & Conservation (SEC2).

SEC2 conference themes

1. Advances in mapping and analysing terrestrial and marine systems
2. Understanding species’ distributions
3. Training and professional development
4. Realising the full potential of remotely sensed data for conservation
5. Decision support tools for conservation
6. Selecting and designating Marine Protected Areas (MPAs)
