  You are invited to attend the annual meeting of the Wisconsin Section of the American Water Resources Association (AWRA). The meeting will be held at the Ramada Stevens Point Hotel in Stevens Point, WI on March 5 and 6, 2009.  Our theme this year is "Wisconsin’s Changing Water Resources" with a focus on climate change and water resources.  
  
  We are planning plenary, oral and poster sessions addressing both surface water and groundwater issues in Wisconsin. We are soliciting posters and presentations related to the theme as well as for general sessions on research related to hydrology, hydrogeology, watershed management, limnology, aquatic toxicology, water chemistry, aquatic ecology, and water policy. Please specify your preference for oral or poster presentation when you submit your abstract. Talks will be scheduled in 20-minute time slots, including 5 minutes for questions. Abstracts are due December 5th. Please see the linked announcement for abstract format and submittal guidelines.  (click to access call for papers.)  Abstracts are to be sent to John Skalbeck (skalbeck@uwp.edu).
