SESS participates and presents at the ECEM 2023 in Leipzig, Germany 

SESS members Trine Poulsen and Jordan Chetcuti participated in the 9th European Conference on Ecological Modelling, ECEM 2023, the 4th to 8th of September 2023, in Leipzig, Germany.

This year, the ECEM welcomes contributions that directly or indirectly supports tranformation, including strategies and models that focus on improving one or more of the following: 

        ^{Representation of response mechanisims 
           Multi-criteria model evaluation
           Model-data fusion
           Sensitivity and robustness analyses
           Upscaling and transferability to new regions
           Link to management scenarios
           Social-ecological systems 
           Transparency and reproducibility 
           Implementation and testing of theories and concepts 
           Multi-modelling synthesis}

The SESS centre is involved in many of these aspects, and will present the following:

1. Poster "Introducing the Formal Model and Model Implementation Documentation with Doxygen (MIDox) Paper Formats for Transparent and Reproducible Modelling" by Jordan Chetcuti at The Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ) Campus, "KUBUS" Foyer, the 5th of September at 12:30-14:00 CEST
2. Presentation "Modelling the Fate of Pesticides in ALMaSS: A Multi-Compartment Approach for Risk Assessment" by Trine Poulsen at The Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ) Campus, "KUBUS", Hall 1 CD, the 5th of September at 14:00 CEST  
3. Presentation "A Comprehensive Agent-Based Model for Bumblebees with Temperature Feedback" by Jordan Chetcuti at The Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ) Campus, "KUBUS", Hall 2, the 7th of September at 15:00 CEST
