Abstract deadline extension for SCAR 2020 Open Science conference

Thursday, February 27th, 2020

The deadline for submission of abstracts to the SCAR2020 Open Science Conference has been extended until 5pm AEST on 6th March 2020. 

Abstracts can be submitted here. 

SCAR COMNAP 2020 will include a full program of meetings, symposia, side events and social events including the COMNAP Symposium, public SCAR lecture, and exhibition and poster sessions all structured to encourage SCAR and COMNAP attendee participation. SCAR COMNAP 2020 will be held in the gateway city Hobart, Tasmania. It promises to be a world class event, capitalising on Hobart’s unique status as the gateway to East Antarctica and the home of Australia’s premier Antarctic institutions.

The SCAR Open Science Conference theme “Antarctic Science – Global Connections” recognises the significance of the scientific connections between Antarctica and the global system. It also reflects the strongly connected Antarctic science community and, in the spirit of the Antarctic Treaty system, the importance of collaboration in Antarctic science.
