The 25th international conference of The International Environmetrics Society (TIES) was held in 2015. The conferences have been an integral part of the development of TIES and of the society's official journal, Environmetrics, since the concurrent inception of the society and journal at the first conference in 1989. The conferences are documented in chronological order, with more description of the early conferences because many features were set at these conferences. Some common features are included for all conferences, and only new or particularly relevant components are mentioned for later conferences. This development is then drawn on to discuss the character, contributors, and evolution of the conferences in the context of TIES as a society with the aim of fostering the development and use of quantitative methods in solving environmental problems through collaboration among individuals in different disciplines and types of organizations.
