Dear colleagues,

please allow us to to draw your attention to the session BG3.4, entitled:

Biogeochemistry of coastal seas and continental shelves - including
Biogeochemistry during the International Polar Year 2007-2008

to be held at the EGU general assembly, 03-08 April, 2011 in Vienna.

The session aims at fostering our understanding of the roles of coastal
environments and of exchange processes along the terrestrial / coastal sea /
open ocean continuum in global biogeochemical cycles. During the session recent
advancements in the field of coastal and shelf biogeochemistry will be
discussed. International Polar Year (IPY) studies are as welcome as all other
relevant studies. Contributions focusing on carbon and nutrient and all other
element's cycles in coastal, shelf and shelf break environments are invited.
This session is co-sponsored by the IGBP/IHDP coreproject LOICZ.

Information on the meeting can be found at:

and on the session including abstract submission:

Please consider submitting an abstract.

Best regards and looking forward to seeing you in Vienna,

Helmuth Thomas and Alberto V. Borges
