"Algal Modelling: Processes & Management"
Algal Modelling: Processes & Management

One day conference and workshop, July 16th 2004.

The Aquatic Environments Research Centre at the University of Reading is holding its third international conference and workshop on Algal Modelling:

Processes and Management on July 16th 2004.

Previous events were held in 1996 and 1998 and gave rise to special editions of the Hydrobiologia journal. A similar special issue will be produced this year and contributions are invited both for oral presentations at the conference and written papers for inclusion in the journal. For information on submitting to Hydrobiologia, please click http://www.fp.rdg.ac.uk/cmwg/hydro.asp.

Whilst the conference title is relatively specific, we welcome papers in related areas concerned with ecological and hydrological processes and modelling. A list of sample presentations from our previous events is given below.

Conference Timetable:

28 May 2004 deadline for notification of intention to present conference paper

25 June 2004 deadline for conference attendance registration

16 July 2004 Conference

Registration Fee:

GB £45 (£30 for registered students) to include conference materials, refreshments and lunch.
