Second Notice Colleagues,
Every year, the Vegetation Section of the Ecological Society of America awards the Ton Damman Award to the best oral presentation by a graduate student (or very recent graduate student) at the ESA meeting. The cash award is $500. Information about the award is given on the vegetation section website (http://www.esa.org/vegetation2/?page_id=17). If you are a graduate student or know of a graduate student who is interested, please pass this message on to them. There are two very important points I want to emphasize: 1) You *must* notify the Section secretary, Loretta Battaglia ([email protected]), by JULY 15TH, that you are applying. 2) To qualify, the talk must be about VEGETATION SCIENCE (aka PLANTS). Talks that don't focus on plants will not be considered. If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to contact me. Regards, James E Moore Chair, Vegetation Section
