Dear colleagues,
The 10th International Conference on Ecological Informatics (ICEI) from 24 - 28 September, 2018 in Jena, Germany under the theme /*'Translating Ecological Data into Knowledge and Decisions in a Rapidly Changing World'*/ will provide a forum to address this question - both from an ecological and a computer science point of view.
We cordially invite special sessions on all aspects of eco-informatics and computational ecology including but not limited to: • Novel concepts and tools for the acquisition, management, analysis and synthesis of ecological data, including genomic and paleo-ecological data • Understanding and modeling ecosystem functioning, phenology and evolution • Informing decisions on environmental issues like sustainability, ecosystem services, climate change and biodiversity.
The call for */special session/* is open and proposals are invited till /*15th December 2017*/. The proposal should provide a title, brief scope of the session and details of the session’s organizer(s) along with the duration. Please submit your proposals via the submission system /*EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icei18*/.
