Call for Contributed Oral and Poster Abstracts 94th ESA Annual Meeting Albuquerque, New Mexico August 2 - 7, 2009
Deadline for Submission: February 26, 2009 We invite submission of abstracts for contributed oral and poster presentations at the 2009 ESA Annual Meeting. The meeting will be held August 2-7, 2009, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, at the Albuquerque Convention Center. Abstracts that address the meeting theme, “Ecological Knowledge and a Global Sustainable Society”, are especially encouraged, but submissions may address any aspect of ecology and its applications. We also welcome submissions reporting interdisciplinary work, that address communication with broad audiences, or that explore ways of teaching ecology at any level. Please note that invited speakers for Symposia and Organized Oral Sessions should not submit their abstracts until they receive specific instructions by email in late January. These abstracts will still be due on February 26, 2009. Contributed oral presentations are allotted 15 minutes plus 5 minutes for questions, and will be placed in thematic sessions scheduled Monday afternoon through Friday morning. By submitting an abstract, it is expected that authors will be available during any of these time slots. Contributed poster presentations are placed in late afternoon poster sessions scheduled Monday through Thursday afternoon. Posters should be hung all day preceding their session, and authors are expected to present their posters during the entire 90 minute poster session. For more information and to begin the submission process, please go to http://esa.org/albuquerque/call_abstracts.php. If you have any questions, please contact Program Assistant Aleta Wiley ([email protected]) or Program Chair Scott Franklin ([email protected]).
