Conference Description

The Gordon Research Seminar on Catchment Science: Interactions of Hydrology, Biology & Geochemistry is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

The 2013 Seminar, entitled "Catchments Through the Looking Glass", explores the idea that research findings are influenced by context and techniques. We encourage contributions from any field connected to catchment science, including hydrology, ecology, and biogeochemistry. As you present your research findings, highlight the lens through which you work, such as a technique, discipline, or scale of analysis.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Catchment Science: Interactions of Hydrology, Biology and Geochemistry" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
