iEMSs 2008 - International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software

The aim of the congress is to enhance environmental processes by means of fostering the discussion and interchange of challenges, solutions, ideas, new methods and techniques, and future research lines in environmental modelling & software. The congress joins together several interest groups working in different but complementary features and/or scientific fields in Environmental Modelling, Assessment, Decision Making and Information Technologies. This time, the focus will be stressed on Integrating Sciences and Information Technology for Environmental Assessment and Decision Making.

Integrated Assessment of Agriculture and Sustainable Development: Setting the agenda for Science and Policy

The conference is the final event of SEAMLESS (funded by the European Commission under Framework Programme 6), in which an operational modelling framework is developed. This framework serves two purposes: 1. to support ex-ante assessments of agricultural, environmental and rural development policies and innovations; 2. to facilitate linkage of model components for theoretical and applied studies. The SEAMLESS project (2005-2009) is unique in its attempt to provide a modelling framework for the agricultural sector across the full range of scales, from field to global level, to facilitate the analysis of impacts of policies on the economic, environmental and social dimensions of agriculture. In this conference, its outcomes and lessons learned will be discussed in the context of other international initiatives and a joint research agenda will be defined.
