SECOND ANNOUNCEMENT: CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

1st International Symposium on Coastal Ecosystems and Global Change (CoEco1)

April 16-19, 2021

Xiamen, China

We are pleased to announce that the First International Symposium on Coastal Ecosystems and Global Change (CoEco1) will be held in Xiamen University, Xiamen, Fujian, China from April 16 to 19, 2021. Founded in 1921, Xiamen University will celebrate its 100th anniversary, and we welcome you to join us in celebrating the centenary. 

Coastal ecosystems is known as one of the most productive ecosystems on the Earth, and they are vital to environmental health, sustaining economic development, and preserving biodiversity. They are also playing an increasingly important role in mitigating climate change and environmental degradation. However, coastal ecosystems are facing unprecedented challenges in the context of global change and increasing anthropogenic activities. Coastal ecosystems have become one of the most vulnerable ecosystems in the world. The aim of the symposium is to bring together scientists all over the world to share the latest scientific discoveries and to discuss, and find potential solutions, the challenges in coastal ecosystems. The main theme of this conference is coastal ecosystems and global change.

On behalf of the Scientific Committee and Organization Committee, we look forward to your participation and contributions. Welcome to beautiful coastal city of Xiamen in southern China! For more please view http://coeco.xmu.edu.cn/
