Dear Friends,
Registration for the 14th Multidisciplinary Conference on Sinkholes and the Engineering and Environmental Impacts of Karst is now open! Registration is open not just for the conference but also for its four excellent short courses and field trip.
Additionally, we are now accepting full papers as well as abstracts (the deadline for abstracts is 1 December 2014; papers may be submitted later if the abstract is submitted by the deadline).
Just as important, if you are a student or know one, we encourage students to apply for the Barry F. Beck Student Scholarship that includes free registration to the conference plus up to $1,000 for travel expenses. We encourage organizations and working professionals to donate to the scholarship fund to provide even more scholarships to help boost the careers of young karst scientists. All donations are tax deductable.
Generally known as ?The Sinkhole Conference,? for 30 years this conference series has been the premier conference for all aspects of karst geoscience and related engineering and environmental issues?and not just sinkholes. This next Sinkhole Conference will be held in Rochester, Minnesota, USA, on 5-9 October 2015, and jointly organized with the Minnesota Groundwater Association it should be an exceptional meeting!
The Sinkhole Conference now has a permanent website at the easy-to-remember address: http://www.sinkholeconference.com/. Bookmark and visit it for information on how to register, submit an abstract and paper, find all deadlines, details on the Beck Scholarship, and other information. It also includes the proceedings of the 13th Sinkhole Conference for free download. The ?Destination? tab has a lot of great Information on Rochester, transportation, hotels, maps, dining, etc.
If you have any questions, let me know. Please distribute this information to anyone you think may be interested.
On behalf of the many fine engineers and geologists on the Sinkhole Conference Organizing Committee, we look forward to seeing you one year from now in Rochester!
George
