The 2016 GEO BON Open Science Conference: “Biodiversity and ecosystem Services Monitoring for the 2020 Targets and beyond. Building on observations for user needs”will take place from 4 to 9 July 2016 in Leipzig, Germany.
Biodiversity Science is facing enormous challenges as the pressures upon the earth’s biotic systems are rapidly intensifying and we are unlikely to reach the CBD 2020 Aichi Targets. But how far or close are we to reach the targets? The GEO BON Open Science Conference on “Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services Monitoring for the 2020 Targets and beyond” will assess this question. The conference is open to the wide scientific public and is sponsored and co-organized by iDiv, UFZ, SASCAL (others to come).
