Call for Papers
Abstract submission is closed. Thanks to all!
The International Association for Great Lakes Research invites you to participate in the 51st Annual Conference on Great Lakes Research, to be held May 19-23, 2008, at Trent University in Peterborough, Ont. We welcome abstract submissions for both oral and poster presentations.
Our Lakes, Our Community is the theme for this year's conference, with nine sessions devoted specifically to that theme. In addition, a significant number of sessions explore aspects of Human Health impacts of contaminants and pollutants, Ecology and ecosystem management, and Ecosystem processes: modeling, monitoring and assessment. In all, 29 separate sessions have been proposed, including a general contribution session in the event that a paper does not fit clearly within these designated sessions.
All interested persons are invited to submit abstracts for consideration. All oral presentations will be scheduled for Tuesday, May 20 through Friday, May 23, and the poster session will be on Tuesday evening. Both oral and poster presentations will require an abstract. Please note that oral presentations will be limited to 15 minutes, followed by a 5-minute question/discussion period. Depending on the number of abstracts received and the time available, we may request that some abstracts submitted as oral presentations be moved to the poster session.
