INTECOL International Association for Ecology

Following the founding of the Association, specialist groups were established in various areas of ecology. These mostly operated by arranging independent meetings or through organising sessions at the International Congresses.

INTECOL meets every four years at an international congress of ecology hosted by a member national society. In addition we organize major International Wetlands Conferences and co-sponsor EcoSummits in years between congresses. We also work closely with groups such as the international Long-Term Ecological Research Network (ILTER) and the International Network of Next Generation Ecologists (INNGE).

As more international research is being organized and conducted around the world, it becomes even more essential for INTECOL to help coordinative and communicate among our member societies and our individual members.

Biomonitoring of Atmospheric Pollution

Biomonitoring involves measurement of chemicals in biological matrices including human tissues. It has been shown to be an excellent approach to quantify the exposure to a wide range of chemicals. Biomonitoring studies routinely revealed novel, and sometimes surprising, information about the accumulation of chemicals in living receptors.
