44.Industrial Ecology — The Role of Industrial Ecology in Addressing Sustainability Imperatives
Dates	17 Jun 2012 → 22 Jun 2012	[ID=455059]
Location	Les Diablerets, Switzerland
Organizer	Gordon Research Conferences
Abstract	The 2012 Gordon Research Conference on Industrial Ecology will examine key sustainability imperatives from various angles. Industrial Ecology is an interdisciplinary field of science that aims at a holistic understanding of the technosphere, ecosphere and the interactions between the two that result from the use of resources and generation of pollutants and wastes. The conference will explore how industrial ecology helps address some of the key interconnected questions that the planet is facing: (1) how do we feed the 9 billion people that will inhabit the earth by 2050?; (2) do we have sufficient supplies of affordable metals and minerals to support an ever more populous and wealthier world?; (3) how do we green rapidly industrializing nations?; (4) can we sustain economic growth?; (5) how can we envisage a sustainable future, and what are the roles of scenarios in industrial ecology research?; (6) what do we know about the consequences of policy intervention?; (7) how do we address the rebound effect when promoting efficiency? Finally, the last session of the conference will be devoted to an open discussion on how industrial ecology can best contribute to addressing these questions: what are the challenges for industrial ecology in dealing with these issues, and what are future research priorities? Invited speakers will present state-of-the-art research from various disciplines in order to provide unique insights and perspectives in approaching these questions. The conference affords an excellent opportunity to explore core sustainability challenges in greater depth with students and researchers at the forefront of their respective fields. Gordon Research Conferences (GRCs) are unique among scientific meetings for their prestige, quality of content, small size, diversity of participants, research—often still unpublished—at the frontiers of science, and a schedule optimized for extended discussion and informal interactions.

These include warming temperatures, shifting precipitation, altered biogeochemical cycling, species extinctions, and other global human impacts. In the 2012 Metabolic Ecology GRC, we will include physiological, biomechanical, ecological, and evolutionary viewpoints on fundamental and applied problems in which the invited speakers will present research ranging upwards in physical scale from the molecular level, to single cells, to multicellular organisms, to ecosystems and the entire globe. Our aim is to span life, earth, and social sciences. We welcome approaches that include scaling theory, biological stoichiometry, dynamic energy budgets, resource ratio competition theory, neutral theory, and other approaches and models that link eco-evolutionary processes to underlying mechanisms and higher level constraints. Our overarching goal is to foster new collaborative interactions that will help us to move towards a more complete understanding of the structure and function of living systems, especially as they respond to accelerating rates of global change. We look forward to welcoming you to another fantastic week of interactions, discussions, and scientific hijinks!

63.8th International Symposium on Lowland Technology
Dates	11 Sep 2012 → 13 Sep 2012	[ID=448936]
Location	Bali, Indonesia
Abstract	“Lowland” denotes regions of low elevation, which are particularly vulnerable to climatic and environmental changes. For example, global warming, which appears to be causing a rise in sea level, must ultimately affect the safety of coastal dikes and other coastal infrastructures, as well as threaten the water and ecological systems in lowland areas. Lowland regions are also particularly susceptible to natural disasters. Action is now required for the development of new technologies to protect and develop lowland areas and to solve the environmental problems currently being faced in these regions. To achieve this aim, it will be necessary to draw on and to merge several disciplines, such as geotechnical engineering, water resources, city – urban planning and management, coastal engineering and geographical information system etc.

76.HydroEco2013 — International Multidisciplinary Conference on Hydrology and Ecology: Emerging Patterns, Breakthroughs and Challenges
Dates	13 May 2013 → 16 May 2013	[ID=465825]
Location	Rennes, France
Abstract	A considerable number of interdisciplinary researches have been developed at the interface between hydrology and ecology during the last decade. The increasing number of peer-reviewed papers on the topic demonstrates the vitality of this theme. This interest in coupling hydrological and ecological studies has been triggered by purely scientific questions related to the quantification of the role of interactions between hydrological and biological processes on surface and groundwater resources and quality, but also by the importance of these physical and biological interactions at small, local and regional scales. These scales are of paramount importance for applied environmental issues related to air and water quality or biodiversity dynamics for instance. The aims of this conference are: i) to present new findings and approaches on interactions between hydrology and ecology, ii) to promote interdisciplinary interactions on water related issues between hydrology, hydrogeology, biogeochemistry, microbial ecology and ecology, iii) to explore emerging patterns, breakthroughs and challenges, and iv) to provide management applications and guidelines to tackle environmental issues.
