[Coral-List] Calcification session at ASLO 2007, Santa Fe

[Gattuso, Jean-Pierre]

Dear Colleague,

We wish to draw your attention to the session:

"SS13 – Calcification in Aquatic Ecosystems: Physiology, 
Biogeochemistry, and Response to Environmental Change"

to be held at the ASLO 2007 Aquatic Sciences Meeting, Santa Fe, USA, 4-9 
February 2007.

We encourage submissions to this session from a broad geographic, 
thematic and instrumental range. The absolute abstract deadline is 3 
October 2006.


Outline:
The goal of this session is to report recent advances in the field of 
calcification in both marine and freshwater ecosystems. All spatial and 
temporal scales will be included, from molecular to global, and across 
geologic time through the present and future. Topics of interest 
include, but are not limited to: (1) molecular control, (2) transport 
pathways, (3) estimates of calcification at the organism, community and 
global scales, and (4) response to elevated pCO2 and temperature. Both 
experimental and modeling approaches are welcome.
