Call for abstracts and registration: 2023 Gordon Research Conference and Seminar on Polar Marine Science
Organizers invite abstracts and registration for the 2023 Gordon Research Conference and Seminar on Polar Marine Science.
This conference, with the theme of Integrating Ocean Physics and Biogeochemistry to Assess Polar Ecosystem Sensitivity to Rapid Change, will take place 5-10 March 2023 in Ventura, California.
Abstract submission deadline: 5 September 2022
Registration deadline: 4 February 2023

The conference will consist of both talks and posters. One-minute oral summaries of posters will allow presenters to address the entire group, promoting enhanced interactions, in-depth discussions, and brainstorming. A GRC "Power Hour" will be held to help address the challenges women face in polar science and support the professional growth of women in our communities by providing an open forum for discussion and mentoring.
The topics, speakers, and discussion leaders for the conference sessions are displayed below. The conference chair is currently developing their detailed program, which will include the complete meeting schedule, as well as the talk titles for all speakers. The detailed program will be available by November 5, 2022. Please check back for updates.
