Folder Conferences and Symposia
One of SCAR’s key activities is providing opportunities to bring researchers together to share their latest results, discuss new ideas, and develop new projects. Here you will find various documents related to our conferences and symposia, including reports from previous conferences, bids from hosts, a guide for those interested in hosting a SCAR Meeting and past Open Science Conference abstract books.
Folder International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences (ISAES) (6)
The first Antarctic Geology Symposium was held jointly with IUGS (the International Union of Geological Sciences) in September 1963 and initially was held at irregular intervals, interspersed with conferences on Antarctic Quaternary Studies and marine geology. Since 1987, the International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences (ISAES) has been held regularly every four years and alternates with SCAR’s Biology Symposium.

Here you will find publications associated with other SCAR Symposia.
Folder SCAR Biology Symposium (2)
The first Antarctic Biological Sciences Symposium was held jointly with IUBS (the International Union of Biological Sciences) in September 1962 and initially was held at irregular intervals, interspersed with symposia on human biology and medicine and BIOMASS. Since 2001, the Biology Symposium has been held regularly every four years, alternating with SCAR’s International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Sciences (ISAES).
