[ISSHA] Reminder: Second Announcement for HAB and Climate Change Symposium

[Henrik Oksfeldt Enevoldsen]

Dear Colleagues,



A Symposium titled, "Harmful Algal Blooms and Climate Change" that is being co-sponsored by PICES- GEOHAB/IOC-SCOR- ICES  will be held  in Gothenburg, Sweden from May 19-22, 2015.



Find all details at: http://pices.int/meetings/international_symposia/2015/2015-HAB/scope.aspx



Abstract submissions are due 1 April 2015.



Please share this email with your networks  that might be interested in attending this symposium. Because the topic includes BOTH HABs and CLIMATE CHANGE, there is a desire to engage a diversity of scientific disciplines in the discussions that will be held at the symposium.


Symposium Objectives


·         Bring together algal physiologists, ecologists, oceanographers, modellers and climate change specialists to develop a consensus on the priority research directions for future HAB/CC funding.

·         Develop "proactive" research strategies that build rigorous, testable hypotheses to guide scientists, managers and the public on what environmental and HAB changes are projected.

·         Design funding-realistic observing infrastructures (combining research studies, detection schemes, observing systems) to capture the critical datasets needed to assess HAB patterns in relation to measurable indicators of climate change.

Best regards,
