Free webinar: The Road Towards Predicting Sturgeon Migration
Join us on 12 June 2025 for “The Road Towards Predicting Sturgeon Migration” - a webinar on how agent-based modelling and GIS are helping map Beluga sturgeon movements in the Danube Delta and why this matters for their survival.

Combining research on modelling Beluga sturgeon migration with GIS expertise has put sturgeon migration on the map. Wrap it all into a web application, and you have a promising tool to support the sturgeon conservation unit in the Danube Delta, Romania.
This webinar is hosted by Nature FIRST, an EU-funded project combining forensic intelligence, environmental data, and remote sensing technologies to monitor, detect, and prevent biodiversity loss. By developing digital twins and smart tools, the project enables proactive conservation actions in vulnerable ecosystems like the Danube Delta.

In this interactive session, we will cover:
- How the Agent-Based Model is helping us decode the complex migration patterns of Beluga sturgeon.
- The role of data collection, mapping, and visualisation in creating an interactive user experience with the model.
- The power of collaboration in translating scientific research into practical, technology-driven tools for conservation.

Incredible use of technology for conservation!
I’m curious if this approach could be adapted to other migratory species or fragile ecosystems facing similar challenges.
Thanks for sharing, Nalini! Registered! See you there!
This sounds like a great webinar!

Thanks Nalini 🙌
Hi Flavia! Thanks for the nice comment. The webinar will be recorded and uploaded to the Youtube of Nature FIRST (https://www.youtube.com/@naturefirstproject) and can be directly sent to you if you register for it. I'll try to share it here too!
Great! Thank you. Registering now!
Since we are on the topic of fish migration, we are hosting a free screening of the Beaver Trust documentary "Balancing the Scales" in July 👉https://wildhub.community/events/wildhub-special-balancing-the-scales-film-screening-expert-q-a
We have an exciting lineup of speakers with expertise in fisheries and habitat management too, which may be of interest.
