January 17-21, 2011 | Hotel Captain Cook, AnchorageSince 2002, the Symposium has provided opportunities for scientists from Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, and beyond to communicate their research activities in the marine regions off Alaska. Researchers re-connect with old colleagues and meet new ones. Students in marine science connect with mentors and meet authors of the literature that they have been studying as part of their own work.
Plenary and poster sessions feature a broad spectrum of ocean science. Hear the latest in the fields of climate, oceanography, lower trophic levels, the benthos, fishes and invertebrates, seabirds, marine mammals, local and traditional knowledge, and socioeconomic research. Each day also features compelling keynote speakers.
