THE SOCIETY FOR CONSERVATION BIOLOGY ANNUAL MEETING
*********************************************************************
June 6 to 9, 1997
Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
The 1997 SCB Annual Meeting offers an opportunity to present papers and
posters on a variety of topics, with a major theme this year on Marine
Conservation Biology. Invited and contributed special sessions will be held
concurrently with other non-marine sessions, but the special emphasis in a
number of symposium sessions will be similarities and differences between
conservation biology in the marine setting and in other realms. Oral and
poster sessions will be scheduled over three days, with evening times
available for roundtables and discussion groups. Single and multi-day field
trips are planned for the June 10 - 14 period, and will include topics and
destinations such as: Forests and Forestry in the Carmanah Valley, Gray
Whales of Clayoquot Sound, Marine Biota of the Strait of Georgia, and
Ethnobotany of British Columbia Aboriginal People.
Call for Papers and Posters deadline is January 15, 1997. For author
