The TropEcS Symposium brings together international experts in Earth System Modelling (ESM) to address a growing scientific challenge: how to better represent tropical coastal ecosystems in comprehensive climate and Earth system frameworks. Supported by new funding from state and federal governments, ZMT is expanding its modelling capacities and seeks to position itself at the forefront of this effort.

Over three days, participants will evaluate existing ESM platforms, identify key socio-ecological processes to be integrated, and define modelling strategies relevant to coastal dynamics, biosphere interactions, and human dimensions. The symposium will foster collaborations with leading research institutions worldwide and initiate a shared scientific agenda for TropEcS.
