Species on the Move 2026 The International Conference Species on the Move (SOTM 2026), took place in Sun Moon Lake, Taiwan, from April 20 to 24, 2026. This international conference is held every three years, focusing on how species and ecosystems respond to accelerating climate change across marine, freshwater, and terrestrial systems. This global platform connects scientific research, conservation practice, and policy-making, while integrating indigenous knowledge and cultural perspectives to advance environmental stewardship and social adaptation. It brought together X participants from X different countries (from scientists and planners to policymakers and NGOs). It featured X oral presentations, X posters and X keynote talks. PLAnT’s team members were present at the conference to disseminate project results, with oral and poster communications. The PI, Catarina Frazão Santos, presented two oral presentation about "Climate-smart planning for megafauna on the move" and "Climate-smart ocean planning in Antarctica and the Southern Ocean", and presented a related poster about "Marine spatial planning and marine protected area planning are not the same, but both are key under a changing ocean". Postdoc Catarina Pereira Santos presented two oral communications too, one on “Climate-driven compression of megafauna foraging grounds in a changing Southern Ocean” and another about “Navigating the governance landscape of the Southern Ocean: lessons from over sixty years of international collaboration.” A final poster, by Postdoc Francisco Borges, was presented on “Species distribution modelling in the Southern Ocean: where we are at, knowledge gaps, and challenges ahead”. You can find the presented posters below. Find more on the SOTM2026 here: https://www.speciesonthemove.com/ |
