UK Arctic Science Conference 2011

Dear UKPN,

The UK Arctic Science Conference for 2011 will be held on the 14th - 16th September at the University of Leeds.

This three-day conference aims to bring together UK Arctic scientists of all natural science disciplines: atmosphere, biology, ecology, geology, marine and terrestrial cryosphere, modern climate and palaeo-climate, oceans; their various interactions; observations and modelling; and relevant engineering research and development.

The conference will run from the afternoon of Wednesday 14th September, all through Thursday 15th September and close at lunch on Friday 16th September. There will be an icebreaker reception on the Wednesday evening, posters with drinks on the Thursday afternoon and a conference dinner Thursday evening. There will be a prize for the best student poster.

There is no fee either for registration or for the conference dinner.

All enquiries should be directed to arcticinfo@leeds.ac.uk in the first instance.

Further details, including how to register, is now available on the UK Arctic Science Conference 2011 website at http://www.ukarcticscience.org

Best wishes,

UK Arctic Science Conference Organising Committee
