Beijing, October 23-25, 2025 (In-Person/Online)
The Third Asia Transportation Ecology Forum invites scholars, researchers, and practitioners to submit abstracts for presentation. The forum aims to foster academic exchange and practical dialogue on a wide range of topics within the field of transportation ecology. While the following themes are proposed as focal points for the conference, submissions are not limited to this list:
1. Impact of Transportation Infrastructures on Wildlife and Mitigation Strategies
· Habitat loss, degradation, and fragmentation
· Wildlife-vehicle collision (roadkill, injuries, fatalities)
· Road-effect zones
· Barrier impacts and ecological connectivity
· Mitigation measures (e.g., wildlife crossing structures, habitat restoration)
2. Impact on Vegetation and Ecological Restoration
· Conservation of roadside vegetation
· Vegetation restoration and reconstruction
· Prevention of invasive alien plant species
· Road slope maintenance and ecological monitoring
3. Transportation Infrastructure and Water Environments
· Ecological impacts on water-sensitive areas
· Migration and control of waterborne pollutants from transportation
· Monitoring and transportation of transport-related water pollution
· Integrated utilisation of water resources in transportation projects
4. Transportation-Related Pollution and Prevention Measures
· Air pollution analysis and emission control
· Noise and vibration mitigation
· Treatment and recycling of solid
5. Low-Carbon Transportation Development
· Application of new energy technologies in transportation
· Energy conservation and carbon reduction strategies
· Quantification and management of transport-related carbon emissions
· Development of near-zero carbon transport infrastructure
· Use of low-carbon materials in transport projects
6. Environmental Impact Assessment and Management
· Strategic Environmental Impact Assessment
· Environmental impact assessment at a planning level
· Application of mitigation hierarchy frameworks
7. Policy and Management in Transportation Ecology
8. Standards and Regulations for Sustainable Transportation Development
9. Emerging Technologies and Innovation
· Applications of artificial intelligence, big data, and other advanced technologies in transportation ecology
10. Citizen Science, Public Participation, and Stakeholder Engagement
