The Byrd Polar & Climate Research Center (BPCRC) would like to invite you to attend the inaugural Byrd Center Symposium on Climate Change Research at Ohio State, on Friday, March 22. The symposium will take place at BPCRC in Scott Hall on West Campus.

If you plan to attend, please register by Friday, March 1; the registration page is now live. All are welcome!

You and your students are invited to present climate change related research. Submissions for any and all research related to climate are welcome! Please submit abstracts by Friday, February 15. (The abstract submission is used to approximate the need for accomodation of posters).

The goal of the Symposium is to gather all of the climate research here at OSU under one roof for one day, in order to increase visibility of your research on campus, and to connect with other OSU climate researchers. To be successful, the Symposium must span the gamut of all climate research done on campus: the geologic history of earth's climate, physical drivers of climate and how water and energy cycles are responding, how climate change impacts ecosystems, how society is adapting to climate change, how we think about and talk about climate, and everything in between.

Student participation is strongly encouraged! Abstracts that have been presented previously at meetings are welcome: our goal is discussion among OSU climate researchers. Oral presentations are limited to invited speakers; submitted abstracts will be poster presentations. 

If you have questions, please contact Michael Durand.
