Symposium on New Approaches in Marine Organic Biogeochemistry

为支持将于2003年8月28日至30日在圣胡安岛华盛顿大学星期五海港实验室举行的海洋有机化学和生物地球化学新方法研讨会，演讲者、会议主席和组织者的部分差旅和会议费用已被要求提供。研讨会的主要目标是将有机生物地球化学领域的研究人员、研究生、博士后和初级教师聚集在一起，讨论和传播对该领域至关重要的分析、方法和概念问题的新方法和进展。研讨会的分主题将包括有机质保存、水柱转化、黑碳、有机生物标志物、陆源有机质和微生物/光化学转化。此外，还将就海洋凝胶工艺和化学参考标准等主题举行圆桌讨论。预计约有80名与会者将出席会议。研讨会的结果将发表在《海洋化学》杂志的特别版上。

ABSTRACTOCE-0331843Partial funds for travel and conference costs for speakers, session chairs and organizers have been requested to support the Symposium on New Approaches in Marine Organic Chemistry and Biogeochemistry to be held August 28-30, 2003 at the University of Washington Friday Harbor Laboratory on San Juan Island. The primary goal of the symposium is to get together investigators which are leaders in the field of organic biogeochemistry, as well as graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty to discuss and disseminate new approaches and progress in analytical, methodological and conceptual questions pivotal to the field. Subthemes of the symposium will include organic matter preservation, water column transformations, black carbon, organic biomarkers, terrigenous organic matter and microbial/photochemical transformations. In addition, round table discussions will be held on the topics of marine gel processes and chemical reference standards. It is anticipated that approximately 80 participants will attend the meeting. Results from the symposium will be published in a special edition of the journal Marine Chemistry.
