2011 ASLO Meeting in Puerto Rico

Dear All,
 
I know that Ocean Sciences has only recently passed, but is it not
too early to start making plans for next year!
 
Jorge Corredor, Maria Gonzalez, and I would like to invite you to submit
a session to the 2011 ASLO Meeting February 13-18, 2011 on the beautiful
Island of San Juan, Puerto Rico!  DEADLINE is 23:59 U.S. Central Time
April 5, 2010.
 
ASLO 2011 Scientific Theme and Program
 
In February of 2011, scientists from around the world will converge on
the beautiful island of Puerto Rico to discuss emerging science on
“Limnología y Oceanografía en un Mundo en Cambio”, Limnology and
Oceanography in a Changing World.  We are entering a new epoch, where
anthropogenic impacts on climate are affecting our world in a myriad of
yet to be understood ways.  Islands, such as Puerto Rico, are
particularly vulnerable due to rising sea level, increasing human
populations, and stress on freshwater supplies.  The goal of this
conference is to bring together an international group of scientists
determined to meet the challenge of the change upon us, exploring
diversity and connections across the range of aquatic systems impacted
by humankind.
 
 Hope to see you there!
 
Claudia
