Southern Connection 2016 Booklet 4 January

VIII SOUTHERN
CONNECTION CONGRESS
18-23 January 2016
Punta Arenas, Chile
WELCOME TO THE VIII SOUTHERN CONNECTION

CONGRESS 2016
It is our great pleasure to host the VIII Southern Connection
Congress in Punta Arenas, Chile, one of the southernmost cities
on the South American continent and bordering the Straits of
Magellan. Many 19th-century naturalists and explorers dared
to navigate the treacherous Straits of Magellan on their way
to the distant shores of the southern continents and islands.
Among these explorers is the illustrious Charles Darwin, a
champion of modern biology, one of the founders of the science
of biogeography, and an individual who has inspired many of us
to address questions about the diversification of southern biotas,
together with their similarities and differences and conservation
needs. It is thus very fitting to host the VIII Southern Connection
congress in this part of the world. Punta Arenas is also the proud
home of the University of Magallanes, an academic institution
that sustains long-standing records of studies on the natural
history, ecosystems, and human settlements at the southern
end of the Americas. The city is currently an important gateway
to the Antarctic continent.
As of 1993, scientists from many parts of the globe have met
seven times in five different countries to discuss the progress
of research on the biota and ecosystems in the far-flung
southern lands characterized by strong Gondwanan links. In this
VIII Southern Connection congress the second to be hosted
by Chile we are very happy to receive many distinguished
scientists and new generations who have come to this southern
bastion of Chile to share their deep or emerging knowledge of
the history and ecology of the southern lands in research areas
such as Climate Change, Invasion Biology, Phylogenetics and
Phylogeography, Macroecology, Paleoecology, Earth and Ocean
science, Ethnography, Plant Reproductive Biology, Ecophysiology,
Ecosystem and Population Ecology, Conservation biology, and
Environmental Ethics, among others. We hope that the 2016
meeting, bathed in the especially invigorating windy environment
of Punta Arenas and surrounded by outstanding beauty of the
southern channel islands, mountains, fjords and Patagonian
steppe, will stimulate the development of many new ideas, and
collaborations, leading to exciting future research for all present.

We will endeavor do our best to ensure that the VIII Southern
Connection Congress is an enjoyable and memorable experience.

ORGANIZING INSTITUTIONS
Institute of Ecology and Biodiversity (IEB)
The Institute of Ecology and Biodiversity (IEB) is one of nine
research institutes of the Chilean Millennium Science Initiative
(MSI). Millennium Institutes are competitively-awarded
Centers of Excellence in science, bringing together scholars
sharing a common philosophy and research goals and with
demonstrated capacity to engage in quality collaborative
research. IEB was created in 2006. A novel institution organized
as a national network of scientists pertaining to several
Chilean universities, IEB currently counts with 13 principal
scientists, several associate scientists, and over 100 graduate
students and postdoctoral fellows. IEBs main research
lines are Palaeoecology, Macroecology, Ecosystems Ecology,
Microevolution, Invasion Biology, and Biocultural Ethics, with
Climate Change and Conservation as cross-cutting themes.
IEB represents Chile in several international committees such
as the GMBA, ILTER, MIREM, IPBES and has been recently
recognized for its high Nature Index 2014. As of 2008, in addition
to receiving MSI funding, IEB has received Base Funding from
CONICYT, principally destined to support the transference of
scientific research into tangible actions that directly benefit
society. The host institution of IEB is the Universidad de Chile,
Santiago.
University of Magallanes (UMAG)
The University of Magallanes (UMAG) was created in 1981 as
a successor to the Punta Arenas branch of the former State
Technical University, which was originally established in 1961.
As a public institution with a solid tradition in the Chilean
university system, UMAG currently has over three thousand
students enrolled in its five faculties. Through teaching, research
and extension, UMAG aims to develop knowledge and human
resources in the southernmost region of Chile and South
America. UMAGs academic core is formed by 160 full-time
professors and a number of associate professors. UMAGs
teaching, research and extension activities takes place in four
faculties: Engineering Sciences; Humanities; Social and Health
Sciences; and Economic and Juridical Sciences. Together, these
faculties offer 29 undergraduate degrees and technical degrees,
as well as some post-graduate degrees. All students are
prepared with a high level of academic excellence, with emphasis

on all-around development.
Instituto Antrtico Chileno (INACH)
The Instituto Antrtico Chileno (INACH), located in Punta
Arenas, is a technical organization of and advisory body
to the Chilean Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is the national
institution responsible for planning, co-ordinating, directing
and controlling officially authorized scientific and technological
activities of the Chilean government and private organizations
on Antarctica. INACH organizes and leads its own expeditions
and maintains scientific stations in the Antarctic. INACH is
responsible for compliance with Chilean Antarctic Policy, which
requires the development of scientific research, technology
and innovation in Antarctica following international standards,
effective participation in the Antarctic Treaty System and related
international forums, and communication and outreach of
scientific activities on Antartica.
