The 2010 Ocean Sciences Meeting
The upcoming Ocean Sciences Meeting will be held in Portland, Oregon,
between 22 and 26 February 2010. The Ocean Sciences meeting, the
world's largest gathering of ocean scientists, is jointly sponsored by
the American Society of Limnology and Oceanography (ASLO), The
Oceanography Society (TOS), and the American Geophysical Union (AGU).
Scientific Session "BO23: Recent Technological Advances for Studying
the Ecology of Top Marine Predators"
Description: The use of sophisticated electronic devices and other
advanced technologies for the study of marine top predator ecology is
becoming routine, resulting in new insights into the physical and
biological processes that influence predator behavior and
distribution. This session seeks to bring together biologists,
oceanographers, and engineers who are involved in the development and
application of cutting-edge instrumentation or novel methods to study
the ecology of predatory fishes, marine turtles, seabirds, pinnipeds,
and cetaceans. Presentations on the use of technologies such as
electronic tagging, hydroacoustics, bioacoustics, autonomous or
remotely operated vehicles, and remote sensing are welcome.
Contributions from outstanding students are particularly encouraged.
This session is co-sponsored by AGU's Biological Oceanography and
Marine Technology Sections.
Conveners: Daniel Palacios, Mark Baumgartner and Steven Bograd
Abstract deadline: 15 October 2009
