Program

The BIOGEOMON Conference, with its inclusive approach to the biogeochemistry of terrestrial and aquatic environments, has been held every 2nd or 3rd year since 1987. Here you can find an overview of the twenty interdisciplinary sessions, the planary speakers, and a timeline.

BIOGEOMON 2026 brings together leading researchers from across the globe to explore the biogeochemical processes that underpin ecosystem function and resilience in a changing world. This year’s sessions span a wide array of themes—from critical zone science and aquatic-terrestrial linkages to climate extremes, land-use change, and ecosystem restoration. Each session is led by invited experts who will share the latest insights and foster discussion across disciplinary boundaries.

View the preliminary BIOGEOMON 2026 scientific programme here, including all sessions, oral and poster presentations, and related events. The program is searchable, so you can easily find specific presenters or presentations you are looking for. There is also a filter function available that allows you to filter by different categories within the program. You can view the full abstracts beside each scheduled presentation – there is a clickable symbol that, when you hover over it, says ‘Show abstract’.” Further updates will be added later.
