Тема: NCKRI cave and karst news and announcements
Dear Friends,
First I wish to thank the organizers of the 17 th International Congress of Speleology that was held last month in Sydney, Australia. It was a
splendid event! Look for more news about it in the upcoming UIS Bulletin, which will be posted in a couple of months at http://www.uis-speleo.org/ . The congress has now visited five of the seven continents, and we look forward to visiting Africa and maybe even Antarctica some day too! The 18 th Congress will be held in 2021
in Lyon, France, the country that hosted the first congress in 1953. More information on that congress will be available in about a year.
Second, below are the latest news items and announcements:
· Sinkhole Conference Abstract Deadline Has Been Extended!
· 10th Venezuelan Conference of Speleology
· EuroKarst now accepting abstracts
· List of Upcoming Cave and Karst Meetings
Details are below. As always, please feel free to share this message with anyone who may be interested.
George
-------------------------
Sinkhole Conference Abstract Deadline Has Been Extended!
The Multidisciplinary Conference on Sinkholes and the Engineering and Environmental Impacts of Karst , “The Sinkhole Conference,” is the longest-running
international conference of its type. Since 1984, engineers, geologists, hydrologists, land managers, biologists, and many others have gathered at these meetings to exchange cutting-edge information on karst and its many benefits and challenges. In consideration
of summertime vacations, the abstracts deadline has been extended to the end of this month, 31 August 2017. Subsequent deadlines remain unchanged. Submission of full papers (for approved abstracts) will open on 1 September and close on 1 October 2017. The
papers of past Sinkhole Conferences have made those proceedings highly sought and widely cited. We expect the proceedings of the upcoming meeting will be the best yet.
The Sinkhole Conference is managed by the National Cave and Karst Research Institute and this next conference is jointly organized with the Karst Waters
Institute. Additionally, the conference will include the 3 rd Appalachian Karst Symposium to make for a truly special event.
The 15 th Sinkhole Conference will occur on 2-6 April 2018 at the National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, USA, about
a 1.5-hour drive from Washington, DC. The conference circular, which is a convenient summary of the conference, is available from http://www.sinkholeconference.com/ ,
where all other conference details can also be found. To submit your abstracts and for instructions on preparing them, see http://www.sinkholeconference.com/abstract-and-paper-submissions-notification-content .
On behalf of the 15 th Sinkhole Conference Organizing Committee, we look forward to receiving your abstracts and seeing you in Shepherdstown next
year!
