Global and Regional Perspectives - North Meets South
ASLO returns to Europe for the 2015 Aquatic Sciences Meeting on 22-27 February 2015 at the Granada Congress and Exhibition Centre (Palacios de Exposiciones y Congresos de Granada) in Granada, Spain.
Plenary talks and special sessions will focus on global and regional patterns of aquatic systems in diverse northern and southern inland water biomes and oceanographic provinces emphasizing both similarities and differences. This theme is a critical scientific challenge as our discipline moves to understand and confront human accelerated environmental change. Along with ASLO members from North America and Europe, we anticipate Granada will be attractive to Latin American, African, and Middle Eastern aquatic scientists. We hope to attract all in a dialogue about patterns of environmental change in aquatic systems at global and regional scales. This meeting in Granada will contribute to the ongoing international development of ASLO by bringing together a diverse group of participants at a site where many cultures have engaged through the centuries.
