Oral presentations are limited to 20 minutes including questions and transition to the next speaker, so presentations should be ~15 min leaving time for a few questions. Please note that if you go over time, we will cut you off!
Please have your talk ready to transfer to our computer before your session. Bring your talk on a USB drive or email it to the conference co-chairs. Slides can be in either PowerPoint or PDF format. Please use 16:9 slide size if possible, this will work best with the venue's screen size. If you want to use another format, please check with the conference organizers well ahead of time.
Maximum poster size is 36" x 48" (whichever orientation you choose). Most posters will be hanging along the walls and some may be on easels with 36" x 48" boards provided by us. Note that we are tight on space so please limit yourself to this size! If you need a stool or small table to display a laptop, please ask us in advance.
In addition to bringing your poster, make a SINGLE powerpoint slide (or pdf) containing your poster title, your name, co-authors names, a photo of yourself (optional), and a representative photo or graphic for your poster (this could be a photo of instruments, a photo of your field site, a figure, a map, whatever makes sense to you). The idea of this single slide is to serve as an advertisement for your poster. Before the poster session, we will introduce all of the posters showing the slides. Please use 16:9 slide size if possible, this will work best with the venue's screen size.
