Ocean Sciences Meeting 2014 in Honolulu, Hawaii

"The OSM 2014 program committee is extending the abstract submission deadline to Monday morning, November 4, 2013 (by 8:00 a.m. U.S. Central Standard Time) for ocean scientists who were directly affected by the recent U.S. government shutdown and could not submit their abstract and pay the associated fee by the October 4, 2013 deadline. Please note that the abstract fee must be paid at the time of submission for the abstract to be accepted. Abstract submission is open only to U.S. government employees and those who were directly affected by the recent U.S. government shutdown and could not submit their abstract and pay the associated fee by the October 4, 2013 deadline.  Call for Tutorials The meeting planning committee is seeking up to twenty tutorial (oral) presentations, to be selected by the committee from abstracts specifically submitted for this purpose. Submission of a tutorial abstract does not guarantee its selection. What makes a talk a tutorial rather than a research presentation is that it reaches outside the specific work of an individual or group, and tries to reach a broad audience of non-specialists with material that gives an overview with new insights and opportunities to the listeners. It is intended to inform those outside the subject area being described. Registration and Abstract Submittal Now Open ..."
