Every other year, the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Polar Marine
Science brings together an outstanding and diverse group of scientists
at the forefront of research, as well as younger scientists and
students. The format and intimate nature of these meetings (maximum
attendance is 125) makes them ideal venues to learn about the latest
research and to meet and discuss new and exciting directions with a
highly interdisciplinary group of colleagues.
The focus of the 2007 GRC on Polar Marine Science, which will take place
25-30 March at the Four Points Sheraton in Ventura, California, will be
"An Interdisciplinary Look at Processes Over Multiple Scales of
Variability." The rationale behind this choice of topic is to explore in
detail the physical, chemical, and biological processes that dominate
temporal and spatial scales ranging from the "micro" to the "paleo".
The guiding principle of a Gordon Conference is the presentation of new,
unpublished work and the free, unhampered discussion that follows. This
tradition of freely sharing ideas is due in large part to GRC's "off the
record" policy which prohibits photography or tape recording of sessions
or the publication of conference proceedings. The agenda for this
meeting is still being developed (http://www.grc.org/programs
/2007/polar.htm),
but organizers hope that you will consider attending
and presenting a poster of your most exciting new research results.
