The ETN Symposium 2024 is the fourth edition in a series organized by the European Tracking Network. Its goal is to bring together scientists and stakeholders to discuss and share progress in understanding how aquatic species move and interact with their environment using telemetry. By providing a platform for knowledge exchange and discussion, the symposium seeks to facilitate the transition from independently operating regional initiatives to a more cohesive and sustainable pan-European biotelemetry network.

The ETN Symposium 2024 will be held on 16-18 October 2024 in Palma de Mallorca. It is organized by the European Tracking Network, the Mediterranean Institute of Advanced Studies (IMEDEA, CSIC-UIB), and the Institut de Recerca i Formació Agroalimentària i Pesquera de les Illes Balears (IRFAP-LIMIA).

The theme of the ETN Symposium 2024 focuses on "Conservation and Sustainable Management of Aquatic Ecosystems Through Acoustic Tracking", and we welcome oral and poster presentations over these four sessions: 

I) Tracking Animals to Monitor Climate Change Effects on Aquatic Environments.

II) Sustainable Fisheries and Protected Areas Management via Acoustic Tracking.

III) Acoustic Tracking for Monitoring Pollution, Human-Made Infrastructure Effects, and Aquatic System Restoration.

IV) Advancements in Collaborative Tracking Networks and the Open Protocol.
