海岸带位于海洋与陆地过渡带，是世界上人口、经济和城市最集中的地区。海岸带生态系统对环境健康、经济发展及生物多样性维持具有关键作用，是沿海经济带最重要的生态安全屏障。然而，在全球变化和人为活动等多重影响下，海岸带生态系统面临着前所未有的挑战，已成为世界上最脆弱的生态系统之一。

2021年4月16-19日，第一届海岸带生态系统与全球变化国际研讨会(1st International Symposium on Coastal Ecosystems and Global Change，简称CoEco1)由厦门大学、中国生态学学会、国际生态学会、太平洋科学协会和国际环境问题科学委员会等联合主办，采用线上线下相结合的形式，会议主题为“Coastal ecosystems and global change”。研讨会旨在为世界各地科学家提供一个良好的沟通平台，分享海岸带生态系统与全球变化研究的新思路、新发现，探讨海岸带生态系统面临的系列挑战，并探寻潜在的解决办法。

第一届海岸带生态系统与全球变化国际研讨会（简称CoEco1)的摘要提交时间由3月7日延长到3月14日，注册时间由3月16日延长到3月23日。

请感兴趣的专家学者关注该调整并抓紧时间提交摘要。会议注册和摘要提交请登录会议网站 http://coeco.xmu.edu.cn/ 。

SECOND ANNOUNCEMENT: CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

1st International Symposium on Coastal Ecosystems and Global Change (CoEco1)

April 16-19, 2021

Xiamen, China

We are pleased to announce that the First International Symposium on Coastal Ecosystems and Global Change (CoEco1) will be held in Xiamen University, Xiamen, Fujian, China from April 16 to 19, 2021. Founded in 1921, Xiamen University will celebrate its 100th anniversary, and we welcome you to join us in celebrating the centenary. 

Coastal ecosystems is known as one of the most productive ecosystems on the Earth, and they are vital to environmental health, sustaining economic development, and preserving biodiversity. They are also playing an increasingly important role in mitigating climate change and environmental degradation. However, coastal ecosystems are facing unprecedented challenges in the context of global change and increasing anthropogenic activities. Coastal ecosystems have become one of the most vulnerable ecosystems in the world. The aim of the symposium is to bring together scientists all over the world to share the latest scientific discoveries and to discuss, and find potential solutions, the challenges in coastal ecosystems. The main theme of this conference is coastal ecosystems and global change.

On behalf of the Scientific Committee and Organization Committee, we look forward to your participation and contributions. Welcome to beautiful coastal city of Xiamen in southern China! For more please view http://coeco.xmu.edu.cn/
