Registration for the symposium is free. Online registration closes
today, Friday, 6 January 2012. On-site registration will be available
throughout the symposium.

Plenary and poster sessions feature a broad spectrum of ocean science,
including the fields of climate, oceanography, lower trophic levels, the
benthos, fishes and invertebrates, seabirds, marine mammals, local and
traditional knowledge, and socioeconomic research. The symposium will

  1. Abstract Deadline Extended
    44th International Liege Colloquium on Ocean Dynamics
    7-11 May 2012
    Liege, Belgium

The abstract submission deadline for the 44th International Liege
Colloquium on Ocean Dynamics has been extended to Sunday, 15 January
2012. The meeting, entitled "Remote Sensing of Colour, Temperature, and
Salinity--New Challenges and Opportunities," will be convened 7-11 May
2012 in Liege, Belgium.

The development of new sensors and algorithms has extended the
application of ocean remote sensing to new research domains. New data
analysis techniques are allowing improvements in the quality of the
datasets used for oceanographic and climatic research. The use of
satellite-derived salinity, as a fairly new dataset, is an exciting
opportunity to improve our knowledge of the ocean dynamics and
ocean-atmosphere interactions.

The 2012 Liege Colloquium will be devoted to the latest developments in
the research fields of salinity, temperature, and ocean color remote
sensing. Open scientific questions and new research directions are of
particular interest.

Extended abstract submission deadline: Sunday, 15 January 2012.
