The 4th International Symposium on Research and Management of Eutrophication in Coastal Ecosystems (EUTRO 2018)
EUTRO 2018 will focus on coastal eutrophication with presentations of and discussions on scientific results in relation to specific eutrophication issues, e.g.: climate and physical control, biodiversity, food webs and ecosystem services, monitoring, modelling and assessment of eutrophication etc.
Sted:
Nyborg, Denmark
Når:
