Preparations are now in full swing for the first ever international microclimate ecology conference, which we’ll host here in Antwerp from the 28th-31st March 2022. The Microclimate Ecology & Biogeography conference is a joint collaboration between the microclimate labs from the Universities of Antwerp, Ghent and Leuven and is supported by our SoilTemp network. Both abstract submission and registration are now open, and can be found on our website!

This conference will be held in Antwerp over 4 days and will be an in-person and online event. It will cover a wide range of microclimate-related topics, from arctic ecosystems to tropical ones and all species and ecosystems in between, as well as from a tiny scale to a global scale.

We got interviewed by Flora Passfield from the BES Forest Ecology section about the what’s and why’s of our conference, very much worth checking out the story here!
