Just a quik reminder that the deadline for registration in the Workshop on ‘Meiofauna from chemosynthetic deep-sea environments’ is next 30 June 2010.
The workshop has been organized by the Census of Marine Life project ChEss (Biogeography of Deep-Water Chemosynthetic Ecosystems) in conjunction with the 14th International Meiofauna Conference at Ghent University for July, 17 2010. This workshop is organized by Monika Bright and Ann Vanreusel and we would like to invite you to attend for free.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together meiofauna researchers who are interested in any biological aspect concerning deep- sea reducing environments, such as hydrothermal vents, cold seeps, whale falls, sunken wood, and areas of low oxygen that intersect with continental margins and seamounts.
We will have sessions in which we will discuss the current state of knowledge of biogeography, biodiversity and abundance, ecology, origin and evolution, morphological and molecular phylogeny, and taxonomy, and future plans. Further we will discuss the possiblities of multidisciplinary and integrative research, building a platform of researchers to combine our efforts in databases, field programmes, and outreach activities.
