Conference Description
The Chemical Oceanography GRC is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
Physical, chemical, biological, and geological processes in the ocean leave chemical fingerprints. The discipline of chemical oceanography uses these fingerprints to understand important ocean processes. It both borrows from other fields to help in the interpretation of chemical data, as well as offers insights into other fields allowing the inference of processes and mechanisms that may not be otherwise measurable. This Chemical Oceanography GRC will continue the tradition of presenting research at the cutting edge of this integrative field, spanning orders of magnitude in time and spatial scales. The conference will bring together experimentalists, observationalists, and modellers who study the generation and interpretation of chemical fingerprints in the ocean and at its interfaces.
The conference chair is currently developing their preliminary program, which will include 9 sessions and the names of the invited speakers and discussion leaders for each of these sessions. Please check back regularly for updates to this information.
