The Marie Skłodowska-Curie project ‘eWARM’, in collaboration with the Unit of Excellence Modeling Nature and the Department of Ecology at the University of Granada, is organizing the international symposium ‘Predictive Ecology in a Warming World’. This event will bring together national and international experts in Global Change Biology to present innovative and unpublished research on the impacts of Global Change on biodiversity and ecosystems.

Human-driven Global Change is severely affecting biodiversity and ecosystem functioning worldwide. From pollutant dispersal to global warming, these impacts are altering population growth rates, species abundance, and ecological interactions, posing serious challenges to biodiversity and ecosystems. Understanding these responses requires an integrative, multidisciplinary approach.

The symposium  on ‘Predictive Ecology in a Warming World’ will gather leading experts to discuss and advance our understanding of these global effects. It will take place from February 3 to 6, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., at Carmen de la Victoria in Granada. Attendance is free and open to postdoctoral researchers and PhD students, but prior registration is required due to limited seating. To register, please email Ignacio Peralta-Maraver (peraltamaraver@ugr.es) with your name and academic stage.
