Dear Friends,
The U.S. National Speleological Society Convention is rapidly approaching. Below is a call for geoscience abstracts. Check the link below to the convention website for information on other sessions that will also be offered at the convention. George ------------------------------------------- The NSS Section of Cave Geology and Geography is accepting abstracts for presentations at the Geology and Geography Session of the 2012 NSS Convention, to be held June 25-29, 2012 in Lewisburg, West Virginia. All abstracts will be considered to be for oral presentations unless a poster presentation is specifically requested. At this time, we have not reserved poster space, but could accommodate a poster session if there is sufficient interest and enough advance notice is given to convention organizers. Abstracts may be no more than 250 words in length (this limit must be strictly met). In addition to the text, the abstracts should contain the title of the paper, and the name(s), address(es), and email address(es) of the author(s). The abstracts should be informative summaries that include the conclusions, and not lists of topics that "...will be discussed." Bibliographies and references should not be given in the abstracts. Papers may be submitted for either oral presentation as a poster. Please specify your preference when submitting your abstract. Send any questions and your abstracts by e-mail to: Paul Burger cavemonp...@hotmail.com The deadline for abstracts is April 30, 2012. Early submissions are encouraged. Confirmation notes will be sent to everyone sending an abstract. Details on presentations times, dates, and other information will be sent to all confirmed participants after the deadline. For online details about the convention, visit: http://www.nss2012.com. * Feel free to post this note and/or distribute it to anyone you think may be interested.
