The provisional conference programme for the Annual Conference of the UK Regional Association of the International Association for Landscape Ecology (IALE-UK) has been published. The conference will take place between 8th – 11th September 2008 at Cambridge University with sessions to include:

• Conservation in Farmed Landscapes
• Dispersal in Fragmented Landscapes
• Culture and Landscapes
• Distribution and Fragmented Landscapes
• Theory Into Practice: Landscape Ecology Being Used to Conserve Habitats and Species

As with all IALE conferences there will be a field trip that attendees can join. This year the IALE-UK trip will visit the Great Fen Project and Wicken Fen, part of the largest wetland restoration in Europe.

The conference programme is now full, but there are still opportunities to submit posters. Registration to attend also remains open. For submissions and registrations, contact Pete Carey, and for more information visit the conference webpage.
