ASLO/AGU/TOS/ERF 2008 Ocean Sciences Meeting
Welcome to the 2008
Ocean Sciences Meeting
On behalf of the program committee, we welcome you to
the 2008 Ocean Sciences Meeting. With a theme of “from
the watershed to the global ocean”, this meeting adds a
land-margin flavor to the traditional ocean emphasis.
About 3,500 oral and poster presentations are included
in topical sessions built around 14 session categories. At
11:00 each morning, we will convene in plenary sessions
for five exciting presentations, all oriented around human
influences to our ocean world. At 17:30 Monday through
Thursday, the meeting moves to the large exhibition hall
for exclusive poster sessions. “Committee Choice” sessions
on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday afternoons will
feature diverse collections of talks aimed at broader audience
interest.
On Wednesday evening, there will be a special forum
“environmental outreach to the public” consisting of a
panel discussion with research scientists plus aquarium,
media, and film professionals.
We hope that you find the meeting exciting, informative
and relevant.

American Society of Limnology
& Oceanography (ASLO)
The purpose of ASLO is to foster a diverse, international
scientific community that creates, integrates and communicates
knowledge across the full spectrum of aquatic
sciences, advances public awareness and education about
aquatic resources and research, and promotes scientific
stewardship of aquatic resources for the public interest.
Its products and activities are directed toward these ends.
For more than 50 years, ASLO has been the leading
professional organization for researchers and educators
in the field of aquatic science. ASLO traces its roots
to the Limnological Society of America (LSA), which
was established in 1936 to further interest and research
in limnological science. While the LSA had members
working in both freshwater and marine systems, the
name did not reflect this diversity until 1948 when the
Oceanographic Society of the Pacific merged with the
LSA to become the American Society of Limnology and
Oceanography. ASLO is incorporated as a nonstock
(non-profit) corporation in the State of Wisconsin.
Membership in the society is presently more than 3,800
members. Members are drawn from 63 countries including
the United States, and more than a quarter of
the members reside outside the U.S.

American Geophysical Union (AGU)
For over three quarters of a century, AGU has supplied
an organizational framework within which geophysicists
have created the programs and products needed to
advance their science. From its beginnings as the representative
of American geophysicists in the international
scientific community, AGU has evolved beyond parochial
boundaries of nation and discipline into an active community
of over 45,000 scientists from 140 countries. AGU
now stands as a leader in the increasingly interdisciplinary
global endeavor that encompasses the Earth and
space sciences.
AGU, a non-profit scientific organization, was established
in 1919, by the National Research Council and for more
than 50 years operated as an unincorporated affiliate of
the National Academy of Sciences. In 1972, AGU was incorporated
in the District of Columbia and membership
was opened to scientists and students worldwide.
AGU’s mission is to:
•
•
•
•
Promote the scientific study of Earth and its environment
in space and to disseminate the results to the
public,
Promote cooperation among scientific organizations
involved in geophysics and related disciplines,
Initiate and participate in geophysical research
programs,
Advance the various geophysical disciplines through
scientific discussion, publication, and dissemination
of information.
AGU’s activities are focused on the organization and dissemination
of scientific information in the interdisciplinary
and international field of geophysics. The geophysical
sciences involve four fundamental areas: atmospheric and
ocean sciences; solid-Earth sciences; hydrologic sciences;
and space sciences.

Meeting Program ASLO/AGU/TOS/ERF
The Oceanography Society (TOS)
The Oceanography Society was founded in 1988 to disseminate
knowledge of oceanography and its application
through research and education, to promote communication
among oceanographers, and to provide a constituency
for consensus-building across all the disciplines of
the field. To accomplish these goals we:
•
•
•
•
Publish Oceanography, a magazine that promotes
and chronicles all aspects of ocean science and its
applications;
Hold meetings to disseminate knowledge and promote
communication among oceanographers; and
Give awards in recognition of distinguished research
in and contributions to oceanography.
The Oceanography Society is a non-profit, tax-exempt
organization incorporated in the District of Columbia.
Oceanography magazine contains peer-reviewed articles
that chronicle all aspects of ocean science and its applications.
In addition, Oceanography solicits and publishes
news and information, meeting reports, book reviews,
and shorter, editor-reviewed articles that address public
policy and education and how they are affected by science
and technology. We encourage submission of short
papers to the “Breaking Waves” section that describe
novel approaches to multidisciplinary problems in ocean
science. Oceanography is published in March, June,
September, and December in online and paper format.

Estuarine Research Federation (ERF)
The Federation’s members are dedicated to advancing human
understanding and appreciation of the Earth’s estuaries
and coasts, to the wise use and management of these
environments and to making the results of their research
and management actions available to their colleagues and
to the public. Members of the Federation include academic
researchers, public sector managers, teachers, consultants,
students and others who are interested in estuaries.
The Estuarine Research Federation is a private, non-profit
non-partisan organization. The Federation was created in
1971, when the members of two older, regionally-based estuarine
research societies (AERS and NEERS) decided that
a national organization was needed to address estuarine and
coastal issues more broadly. The regionally-based Affiliate
Societies now number seven and encompass all of the coastal
regions that border the United States, Canada and Mexico.
The Federation advances understanding and wise stewardship
of estuarine and coastal ecosystems worldwide.
Its mission is to:
•
•
Promote research in estuarine and coastal ecosystems
Support education of scientists, decision-makers and
the public
•
Facilitate communication among these groups
Membership in the Federation is open to all who support
these goals. The Federation currently has approximately
1,650 members, and approximately 1,000 more who are
members of the Affiliate Societies.

While we know there will be great science presented at this
meeting, as well as the opportunity to get together with
colleagues from AGU, ASLO and TOS, you may not know
about the many additional opportunities Orlando has to
offer. There are art schools and galleries; performing arts,
including theater, ballet, opera, and symphony performances
year round; historic homes and museums; parks, zoo
and gardens; eco tours; and many more outdoor activities.
Orlando has a history of breaking attendance records for all
types of meetings; it’s easy to get to from most anywhere in
the world and hosts more than 50 million visitors each year.
An information desk will be available at the convention
center to assist you with questions about Orlando.
Environmental Efforts
The city of Orlando, the convention center, many of the
hotels, and the meeting organizers are very conscious of
the negative impact that meetings have on our environment.
Efforts have been made to reduce the environmental
impact of this meeting and below are some of the ways
that we are working to do so. We urge all conference
attendees to do the same and to check with your hotel on
their recycling and environmental impacts.
The convention center is ISO:14001:2004 certified for its
Environmental Management System including their recy-

cling efforts. There are trash receptacles throughout the
center for recycling of waste. Other efforts include pilot
testing of touch-free air blowing hand dryers, waterless,
touch-free urinals, touch-free soap and hand sanitizer dispensers,
and recycled tissues and hand towels. The convention
center also uses “green certified” cleaning products.
The meeting web site has been used as much as possible
to reduce printing, including the posting of the Call for
Papers and abstracts. We encourage participants to walk
to the convention center from the area hotels and will not
be running shuttle buses.
The Scientific Program
From the Watershed to the Global Ocean
Water connects and binds us all. It moves from the top of
the highest mountain to the depths of the deepest oceans. As
limnologists, oceanographers, and educators, water is the lifeblood
of our endeavors. Now, as never before, we recognize
the interconnections between land and sea, and at the 2008
biennial Ocean Sciences Meeting, we are going to recognize
the important nature of these connections. The meeting
includes oral and plenary sessions plus poster sessions scheduled
at times when there are no conflicts from oral sessions
or scheduled workshops, field trips, or town meetings. The
poster sessions also include receptions to provide opportunities
to make professional connections in a social setting.
Workshops and town hall meetings are scheduled during the
lunch break or evenings after the poster sessions.
Abstracts of papers presented during the meeting are published
on the meeting web site (www.aslo.org/orlando2008)
and are searchable both by subject and by author. Abstracts
will be archived on the societies’ web sites following the
meeting. As we work toward a more “green and environmentally
friendly” meeting format, an abstract book will be
published, but not printed.
Plenary Lectures
Plenary lectures will be held each day from 11:00-12:00,
following the morning group of oral sessions in the Chapin
Theater, third level of the OCCC.

David M. Rubin
US Geological Survey, Pacific
Science Center, Santa Cruz, CA
Grand Canyon’s Tides, Waves,
Currents, and Beaches, and the
World’s Largest Sediment-transport
Restoration Experiment
Presentation: In 1963, Glen Canyon Dam blocked the
transport of sand down the Colorado River, causing erosion
of downstream sand bars, an essential component
of the Colorado River ecosystem. Sand bars provide
backwater habitat for endangered native fish, terrestrial
habitat for riparian vegetation and associated fauna, and
campsites for recreational users. They also help preserve
archaeological features along the river margins. Because
of their importance to the ecosystem, restoration of sand
resources is a key management objective of the Glen
Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Program.
For more than two decades, sedimentologists, hydrologists,
and biologists have worked in the field, lab, and with models
to understand how sand bars and native fish populations
respond to releases from Glen Canyon Dam. In 1996 and
2004, flood experiments were implemented to rejuvenate
the sand bars using geologic quantities of water and sand.
The 2004 flood released almost a cubic kilometer of water
from Glen Canyon Dam and redistributed nearly one
million metric tons of sand that had been delivered to the
mainstem Colorado River by tributaries downstream from
the dam. Biological experiments removed non-native fish
from key spawning areas of the river.
This presentation provides an overview of Grand Canyon
ecosystem-restoration work including results of flood experiments,
insights into sediment transport, new digitalimaging
technology for in-situ measurements of bed-sediment,
and recent observations of native fish populations.
Biography: David M. Rubin completed his Ph.D. studies
on Cambrian-Ordovician marine carbonates at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1975. Since then, he
has worked at the USGS Coastal and Marine program
(Santa Cruz, California). He has worked in Grand
Canyon for 22 years, where he has been a lead designer of
restoration flood experiments.
Dr. Rubin has studied sediment transport and sedimentary
structures in the lab and in modern and ancient
oceans, estuaries, rivers, and deserts. In the 1980’s he
introduced the use of three-dimensional modeling to
relate sediment bedforms to stratification. His work on
sedimentary structures (including a book, computer
code, and interactive animated DVD) has been applied
to sedimentology, geomorphology, paleoclimatology,
mine detection, petroleum exploration, and to ripples
and dunes on Mars and Saturn’s moon Titan. He has
served as PI on projects supported by the USGS, Bureau
of Reclamation, NOAA, NASA, Office of Naval Research,
CALFED, and the United Nations.
Dr. Rubin has played a major role in the development of
underwater instruments. These include a seafloor-deployed
rotating sonar (1983), an automatic dilution laser

ASLO/AGU/TOS/ERF 2008 Ocean Sciences Meeting
particle size analyzer, and an underwater microscope
with image-processing software for in-situ digital grainsize
analysis of bed sediment (patented by the USGS).
This underwater microscope has led to new understanding
of sediment transport and storage in the Colorado
River and is to be featured in an interactive display at the
San Jose Tech Museum of Innovation.

What Insights can be Gleaned from
the Paleoclimate Record Regarding
the Approaching Greenhouse World?
Presentation: Based on the record
kept in Greenland ice, we first became aware the Earth’s
climate system was capable of jumping from one way of
operating to another. Records from other places made
clear that the consequences of these reorganizations were
large and widespread. This discovery raised the question
as to whether the ongoing greenhouse warming might
trigger yet another of these changes. Concern has been
focused on deep water formation in the northern Atlantic.
While certainly legitimate, of late we have reason to believe
that the likelihood of an abrupt shutdown of the
“conveyor” is unlikely. Rather if a hit is to come, I suspect
that it will more likely be associated with the hydrologic
cycle. So an alternate title for my talk might be “Water in a
Warmer World.”
Biography: Wallace S. “Wally” Broecker is the Newberry
Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the
Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in Palisades, New
York. He received his Ph.D. from Columbia University
in 1958 and became an assistant professor there in 1959.
Broecker was made associate professor in 1961 and
became professor in 1964. He has been the Newberry
Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences since
1977. Broecker became a member of the National
Academy of Sciences in 1979. His research interests include
paleoclimatology, ocean chemistry, isotope dating
and environmental science.
In his work, he explores the clear evidence that different
parts of the earth’s climate system are linked in very
subtle yet dramatic ways and that the climate system has
jumped from one mode of operation to another in the
past. He is trying to understand how the earth’s climate
8
system is engineered, so we can understand what it takes
to trigger mode switches. Until we do, we cannot make
good predictions about future climate change. Broecker’s
research is directed toward the role of the oceans in climate
change. Over the last several hundred thousand
years, climate change has come mainly in discrete jumps
that appear to be related to changes in the mode of thermohaline
circulation. We place strong emphasis on using
isotopes as a means to understand physical mixing and
chemical cycling in the ocean, and the climate history as
recorded in marine sediments.
Broecker’s career has included numerous honors
and awards. Among his most recent awards are the
Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement from the
University of Southern California and the Arthur L. Day
Prize and Lectureship from the National Academy of
Sciences in 2002. The Don J. Easterbrook Distinguished
Scientist Award from the Geological Society of America
was awarded him in 2000, and he received the Desert
Research Institute’s 1999 Nevada Medal. In 1996,
Broecker received the National Medal of Science. His
honors include the DOCS Distinguished Lecturer
(Louisiana State University), 1997; Zucker Fellow (Yale
University), 1997; Silver Lecturer (University of New
Mexico), 1997; Fellow, American Geophysical Union;
Fellow, European Geophysical Union, 1992; National
Academy of Science, 1979; and American Academy of
Arts and Sciences, 1976.

The Ocean and the Evolution of
Biogeochemical Cycles on Earth
Presentation: The first half of Earth’s
history was one of “biological innovation”, in which
metabolic processes evolved in marine microbes that ultimately
came to couple the biogeochemical cycles of H, C,
N, O via biologically catalyzed electron transfer (redox)
reactions. The reaction pathways led to a “core” metabolism
of Earth, sustained to the present time with very few
modifications. Oxygenic photosynthesis was one of the
last major metabolic processes to emerge. This process
allowed a virtually endless supply of reductant (the water
in the ocean) to be used in conjunction with a virtually
endless supply of energy (the Sun) to produce organic
matter. Yet, remarkably, the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis
in cyanobacteria did not lead to large scale
accumulation of O2 in the Earth’s atmosphere but, rather

Meeting Program ASLO/AGU/TOS/ERF
was coupled to the carbon cycle through the tectonically
controlled burial efficiency of organic matter in the lithosphere.
Oxygenic photosynthesis fundamentally altered
the nitrogen cycle, allowing ammonium to be oxidized
to nitrate and subsequently denitrified. The interaction
between the oxygen cycle and the nitrogen cycle in particular
produced a negative feedback, in which increased
production of oxygen led to decreased fixed inorganic
nitrogen in the oceans. This feedback, which is supported
by isotopic analyses of fixed nitrogen in sedimentary
rocks from the late Archean, continues to the present
and controls primary production throughout much of
the modern ocean. However, once sufficient oxygen accumulated
in Earth’s atmosphere to allow nitrification to
out-compete with denitrification, a new, stable electron
“market” emerged and ultimately spread via lateral gene
transfer to eukaryotic host cells, allowing the evolution of
“complex” (i.e., animal) life forms. Thus, the presence of
oceans on Earth allowed microbes to develop a network
of electron transfer processes that ultimately permanently
altered the gas composition of Earth’s atmosphere. The
gas composition of Earth is an “emergent” property that
is derived from oceanic microbial life, and can be used
as a guide to search for the presence of life on terrestrial
planets outside of our solar system.

The Future of Ocean Sciences
Presentation: In the coming decade
we can expect a vast array of technical,
political, and societal drivers of
change to impact our oceanographic community. Similar
to the changes we’ve seen since 1995, the effect on our
ability to observe, analyze and forecast the nature of the
marine environment will be profound. Sensors, platforms
and computational capabilities will enhance dramatically
our characterization of the state and the dynamics of the
ocean. Policies, treaties, and global agreements will develop
whole new forums for our collaboration and coordination
among coastal nations. Society’s recognition of and
demand for new products and services (to support safety,
environmental stewardship and economic development,
in a balanced manner) will pull our research into new
and exciting areas of applicability. In sum, this decade will
surely be one of the most productive and fulfilling for this
generation of ocean scientists.
Biography: Dr. Spinrad is the Assistant Administrator of
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA) in the Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric
Research (OAR). He is a native of New York City, and
a graduate of the Johns Hopkins University (B.A.). Dr.

Towards Sustainable Management
of Aquatic Ecosystems in the
European Union - From the River
Basins to the Open Ocean
10
Presentation: The world’s aquatic ecosystems are threatened
by pollution and the exploitation of natural resources,
amplified by the over-arching impacts of climate
change. In many regions the thresholds for maintaining
sustainable ecosystem functioning have been exceeded,
leading to declining fisheries, lack of clean water for human
use and recreation, and loss of biodiversity and genetic
resources of the aquatic ecosystems. Acknowledging
these problems, and the lack of holistic legislative instruments
for knowledge-based adaptive management in the
European Union, a new comprehensive regulation in the
field of water policy was adopted in 2000. The EU Water
Framework Directive (WFD; 2000/60/EC) creates the
legislative framework to manage, protect, and restore surface
water ecosystems and groundwater resources within
river basins and in transitional (lagoons and estuaries)
and coastal waters in the European Union. It follows the
implementation of a number of previous water quality directives
and aims to protect aquatic ecosystems as a whole
being supplemented by Daughter Directives (for ground
waters and priority hazardous substances) to complement
and elaborate some areas where necessary. The WFD
has ambitious objectives aiming to reach good ecological
and chemical status by 2015, while preventing further
deterioration of surface waters and groundwater, and
to ensure sustainable functioning of aquatic ecosystems
(and dependent wetlands and terrestrial systems). Since
the start of the implementation of the directive, 12 new
Member States have joined the EU, thus extending the
geographical scope and the diversity of natural, social and
economic conditions beyond the original extent of the
directive. It was recognized that the overall complexity of
the WFD, multitude of national and local conditions, and
a very tight implementation timetable required the development
of a novel participatory governance approach
to find a common understanding and practical solutions
for the various technical issues. Since 2001 a number of
guidance documents have been jointly prepared by the
Commission, Member States, and several EU-wide sectoral
stakeholder organisations and NGOs, as a result of
the Common Implementation Strategy of the WFD.
The setting of environmental objectives to be incorporated
into river basin management plans followed a series
of steps starting with the characterisation of river basins,
identification of surface water bodies and types, evaluation
of significant anthropogenic pressures and impacts,
and identification of water bodies that are at risk of failing
to achieve good quality standards. The first report of the
implementation of the WFD in the EU Member States suggests
that approximately 40% of surface waters are at risk of
failing to achieve environmental objectives, while there was
insufficient data available to evaluate the preliminary status
of 30% of the water bodies. The lack of such data was particularly
apparent for coastal and transitional waters.

Meeting Program ASLO/AGU/TOS/ERF
The first EU-wide evaluation of the ecological quality
status of surface waters will be carried out as a result
of surveillance monitoring starting in 2007. The WFD
monitoring requirements include a number of biological
parameters such as phytoplankton, macrophytes, benthic
invertebrates, and fish which were not previously required
by the other water quality directives (such as Nitrates
and Urban Waste Water Treatment Directives), nor have
those been traditionally monitored in many EU countries.
During the last decade, a lot of research into the development
of new biological indicators and metrics to assess
the status of the structure and functioning of aquatic
ecosystems has been carried out at EU and national level.
However, many Member States still lack biological classification
tools as required by the WFD. The ecological
status class boundaries of the national monitoring systems
have been compared through an intercalibration exercise.
This process aimed to ensure a common understanding of
criteria for ‘good ecological quality’, and to have an equal
level of ambition in achieving good surface waters status
across the EU. The first round of intercalibration is now
complete for several river, lake, and coastal water types
across the EU’s ecoregions. Many of the assessment systems
are consistent with WFD requirements and generally
provide quite comparable results between the Member
States that share similar types of waters. For instance,
the intercalibration results for the marine ecoregions:
Baltic Sea, Black Sea, Mediterranean, and the North-East
Atlantic, include agreement on reference conditions and
good status classification boundaries of phytoplankton
biomass (based on chlorophyll-a metrics) for a number
of common coastal types in these ecoregions. Further,
intercalibration of boundaries for metrics based on other
biological groups: benthic invertebrate fauna, macroalgae,
and angiosperms was also addressed. These results define
the first set of ecological quality criteria for the assessment
of European coastal waters, linking to the development
of ecological quality objectives in regional Marine
Conventions (OSPAR, HELCOM, BARCELONA, and the
Bucharest-Black Sea Conventions).
Currently, institutional negotiations for the political
agreement of the new Marine Directive based on the
European Marine Strategy are underway. The Marine
Strategy has introduced an ecosystem-based approach for
the management of marine resources and protection of
marine ecosystems, aiming to “promote sustainable use of
the seas and conserve marine ecosystems,” representing
the environmental pillar of EU Maritime Policy, and extending
beyond the scope of the WFD (which covers only
the first nautical mile of the coastline, including estuaries
and lagoons). The marine strategy sets a number of objectives
and actions to prevent the loss of biodiversity and
destruction of habitats, reducing discharges and levels of
11
hazardous substances, and minimizing eutrophication,
marine dumping and oil pollution problems, and aims to
set a legal objective to achieve ‘good environmental status
(GES) of the marine waters’ in the EU by 2021. Common
principles, generic descriptors, criteria, and methodological
standards for GES will be developed at EU level, while
the determination of these as well as the definition of
management measures will take place on a regional level,
requiring coordination and cooperation with marine regional
conventions and with non-EU countries. Together
these two legislative frameworks aim to ensure the protection
of water ecosystems across the river basin - open
ocean continuum, and to provide sustainable aquatic ecosystems
for the future of Europe. Further information on
the status of the EU’s aquatic systems and development in
policies can be found at: http://water.europa.eu.

Ocean Acidification: Humankind’s Global Geochemical
Experiment with Uncertain Ecological Consequences
Abstract: Oceanic uptake of anthropogenic CO 2 is altering
the seawater chemistry and can have significant impacts on
marine biota and ecological processes. The average pH of
surface oceans has dropped by 0.1 units since the industrial
revolution and, if carbon dioxide emissions continue unabated,
will drop another 0.2 to 0.4 units by 2100. Elevated
pCO 2 is driving the shoaling of the CaCO 3 saturation horizon
in many regions, particularly in high latitudes and
areas that intersect with pronounced hypoxic zones. As the
seawater chemistry changes, many calcifying organisms
will be adversely impacted, which could lead to decreased
biodiversity and cascading effects through marine systems.
Few data on the consequences of ocean acidification are
available for many organisms, processes other than calcification,
and for coastal regions, which generally are not
well-represented in global models. The small number of
studies at climate-relevant pCO 2 values presently provides
poor predictive ability to quantify future impacts to food
webs and other ecosystem processes. Suggestions for future
research will be presented, based on regions, taxa, and processes
believed to be most vulnerable to ocean acidification
over seasonal to centennial timescales.
Special Evening Science Communication Forum:
“Does Science Really Matter?”
Wednesday, 5 March 2008, 20:00-22:00
Chapin Theater
There have been discussions within our marine sciences
community and at recent meetings that the outreach
from environmental research scientists to the general
public is not meeting societal needs. At this March 2008
meeting, there will be a major effort to address the needs
12
for broader environmental science outreach. A key part
of the effort is the special evening forum. Two impressions
that underlie the perceived failure at better communication
to the public are: “scientists tend to bore audiences
with sterile recitations of facts” and “environmental
advocates tend to entertain and emotionally present
information that is not necessarily accurate.”
The evening forum will be a frank and open discussion
with a panel including leaders from the scientific, aquarium,
media, and film communities. These panel members
have been selected for their considerable experience and
strong opinions about environmental outreach.
It is anticipated that a number of issues will be discussed
including:
•
•
•
how to make issues compelling to the public while
still fact-based and accurate,
how to convey information rather than advocate action,
and
how to minimize “cultural” bias that may inhibit
active research scientists from participating in outreach
activities.
Format: A group of facilitators who have assisted in planning
the forum will also assist in formulating questions
and most will be present at the forum. The evening will
start with a brief introduction through excerpts from
recent newspaper articles/editorials, films, etc. The panel
discussion will include prepared questions to panelists,
questions among panelists, and questions from the audience.
The intent is not to discuss specific environmental
subjects, but instead to address challenges relating to effective
outreach of technical information about environmental
issues in general.

Ocean Acidification: Towards
an Interagency Approach
Date/Time: Tuesday, 4 March 2008, 19:30-21:30
Location: W108
Ocean Acidification, or the reduction in global oceanic pH
caused by rising dissolved CO 2 concentrations, is a rapidly
emerging issue that has garnered considerable interest from
Congress, the scientific community, and coastal managers.
Over the next century, ocean acidification is expected to
reduce surface ocean pH by 0.3-0.5 units, negatively impacting
shell formation for a number of marine organisms
and ultimately affecting some of the most fundamental biological
and geochemical processes of the sea. In response,
a number of US federal agencies (e.g., NOAA, NSF, USGS,
NASA) are developing programs to address this critical
issue. This town hall forum will be an opportunity for representatives
of agencies that support marine research and
academic researchers to discuss a vision for a national interagency
program on ocean acidification.
Advancing the ocean acidification state-of-knowledge
demands a broad range of research, monitoring, and
modeling capabilities. Some of these capabilities may be
better suited to the mission areas of different agencies.
Through cross-agency and international coordination,
we can achieve greater efficiency, leverage funding, avoid
duplicative efforts, and allow for large-scale joint funding
initiatives. Key topics of discussion will be the recent
interagency workshop report titled, “Impacts of Ocean
Acidification on Coral Reefs and Other Marine Calcifiers:
A Guide for Future Research” and emerging international
ocean acidification programs with the European Union
(EU), Japan, and Korea. Organized by Libby Jewett,
Dwight Gledhill and Dick Feely.
Education & Outreach Workshop
Date/Time: Wednesday, 5 March 2008, 12:00-13:30
Location: W102
Scientists are regularly asked to communicate about their
research through various media to a variety of audiences.
Each audience has particular interests and communication
practices must be adapted to effectively reach them.
Collaboration between scientists and those who specialize
in education and outreach enables researchers to more efficiently
and successfully plan, propose and implement
outreach activities. In partnership with the Centers for
Ocean Sciences Education Excellence (COSEE) and The
Oceanography Society (TOS), we have developed a Guide to
Engaging Scientists in Education & Public Outreach (EPO).
Please join us for lunch and discussion on this guide including
presentations and demonstrations of resources as well as
a discussion on opportunities for scientists to contribute to
the future development of these materials.

•
Low proposal success rates getting you down?
Frustrated with the dismal amount of funding available
for aquatic research?
Have you talked to your representatives in D.C.
about it lately?
If you answered yes to the first two questions, but no
to the last, then this workshop is for you. Public policy
decisions that impact scientists’ ability to do their work
(research funding, education policies and rules regarding
international collaboration) are debated and acted upon
on a continual basis in Washington, D.C. Few scientists
are aware of these decisions, let alone do they make their
voice heard. In this workshop, ASLO Director of Public
Affairs, Adrienne Sponberg, will explain the various
mechanisms available to scientists to participate in the
policy arena.
Sponberg will offer tips for effective communication with
policymakers based on her experience working on and
with Capitol Hill. Participants will put these tips to use in
the second half of the workshop by formulating a strategy
for communicating their concerns to Congress and drafting
talking points that will form the basis of a letter they
will send to their own congressional delegation.
Grab a quick lunch in the food court and join this workshop
for your beverage and dessert. Pre-registration is
required. Cost is $10 and attendance is limited to 40, so
register early.
MISST Project Team Meeting
Date/Time: Thursday, 6 March 2008, 12:00-13:30

From Ship to Shore to the Media: A Workshop
on Science Journalism
Date/Time: Thursday, 6 March 2008, 12:00-13:30
Location: W105
“Gulf of Mexico Double-Whammy.” “Methane-
Devourer Discovered in Arctic Seas.” “Antique
Whale Oil and the Origin of Industrial Chemicals.”
These headlines introduced recent marine science news
1
stories. Did these articles attract readers? If so, what’s
the secret to their success?
Participants in this workshop will learn how to present
science in an interesting way while retaining factual accuracy--the
key to good science communication and science
journalism. Science journalism aims to transmute
scientific concepts and results from jargon-based language
often understandable only by scientists, to news relevant
to the lives of the general reader (listener/viewer).
This workshop will explore science writing for a nonscientific
audience. Participants will review examples of
good science writing from newspapers like the New York
Times and Washington Post, and news magazines like
Science News and New Scientist; “dissect” the structure of
science news and feature articles; discuss how popular
coverage of science has changed in recent years; and learn
the basics of science journalism.
Participants will have the opportunity to write a generalaudience
science article about research presented at the
conference, and individual critiques will be offered to
those interested.
The workshop is free, but pre-registration is appreciated.

•
What knowledge and skill sets are hardest to find or
develop in present and prospective employees?
What are the obstacles to attracting and retaining
qualified employees?
What are the major factors that affect worker supply
and demand?
What other kinds of employers do ocean observing
system employers compete with for workers?
Is the higher education system producing the oceanrelated
graduates needed for the present and future
workplace?
Would a certification program for oceanographic
professionals help employers identify, hire, and evaluate
new employees?
If you have an interest in, or information to share,
about these issues, please join us for this workshop
and the closely-related program session, Ocean
Science, Technology, and Operations Workforce
session (session 093).

1990 marine organic geochemists from the US, Europe
and Japan met in Honolulu for an NSF/ONR sponsored
workshop to review progress in marine organic geochemistry
(MOG). Proceedings of the workshop were
published in Marine Chemistry 39, 1-3 (1992), and these
deliberations served to advance several important research
programs between 1990-2008. Marine organic
geochemistry continues to expand in new directions,
and incorporate new techniques and approaches. We
plan to give a brief presentation of the Honolulu MOG
workshop then open the floor to a discussion of the field
and what can be done to further advance MOG in the

Your Presentation
Please use the following guidelines and information to be
as prepared as possible for the meeting.
Oral Presentations
Talks are scheduled in 15-minute time slots. We strongly
encourage a presentation of no more than 12 minutes to
allow three minutes for discussion and to entertain questions
from those in the audience. In special cases, and at
the discretion of the session organizers, invited presenters
may be given two consecutive slots to provide a tutorial
talk at the beginning of the session. The time limit will be
strictly enforced to facilitate movement between sessions.
Each presenter can easily upload presentation files, including
all multimedia content (ex: linked video, flash,
sound files), online prior to the event or on-site. All presentations
can be previewed and edited by authors up to
four hours prior to their session at the Presentation Room,
Room W205A, before they are automatically downloaded
to the respective computers in the session rooms.
The computers in the session rooms will be Windows XPbased
PC with Microsoft PowerPoint 2003. Verification
of proper performance in the Presentation Room is essential,
particularly if video and animation is included in
the presentation. Please note that Internet access will not
be available during your presentation.
Preparing Your Presentation
Speakers are provided a link and individual login credentials
via e-mail to submit presentations online prior to the
start of the meeting.
Acceptable formats** for presentations:
•
•
PowerPoint (.ppt)
Adobe Acrobat (.pdf)
•
Flash (.swf)
**Apple Macintosh Users
Please make sure that all inserted pictures are either JPEG
or PNG file-types. Quicktime (.mov) files are also an accepted
video format. Individuals using Apple Keynote
will need to bring their files directly to the Presentation
Room to have them correctly transferred to the system.
Video Formats
The recommended video format for Windows-based presentations
is Windows Media (.wmv). For more detailed
information regarding fonts, sound, video, and general
compatibility, refer to http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/
powerpoint/FX100648971033.aspx.

Meeting Program ASLO/AGU/TOS/ERF
Laptops
Personal laptops cannot be used in the session rooms.
You must load your files via the online system or in the
Presentation Room, W205A. However, support is available
in the Presentation Room for file transfers from your
laptop. You also should bring a backup of the presentation
on alternate media (see list of acceptable presentation
formats above). Please make sure you have all power,
video, and networking adapters with you.
How to Submit Your Presentation
Advance Submission: Presenters will be able to submit
their files via the web and will receive their login credentials
via e-mail. Online submission of your presentation
files via Internet is not required, but is strongly encouraged.
Presenters who send in their presentation files via
the Web site will have faster check-in at the Presentation
Room. Please make sure to upload all media files required
for your presentation. Any videos, sounds, or
fonts not included in your online upload folder will cause
your presentation to fail in the meeting room.
On-site Submission
Check-in at the Presentation Room at least 24 hours
before your session to submit your files and to preview
your presentation. If checking in on the day prior to your
session is not possible, you must check in at least four
hours prior to the start of your session (note: this refers
to the session start time, not the presentation start time).
PSAV technicians will assist with the upload of your files
and provide the opportunity to preview and/or edit the
presentation as necessary.
Bring a Backup
Be sure to bring a backup copy of your presentation with
you to the meeting. If you plan to upload files on-site,
bring two copies.
Presentation Room
Checking in at the Presentation Room, W205A, is the
most important step you will take to ensure a successful
presentation.
All presenters are required to check-in to the Presentation
Room, preferably the day before. If you are unavoidably
delayed, you must still go directly to the Presentation
Room. Do not bring a laptop or other media device to the
session room.
When reviewing your presentation make sure all fonts,
images, and animations appear as expected and that all
audio or video clips are working properly. The computers
in the session rooms are the same as the computers in the
Presentation Room, therefore:
21
IF THE PRESENTATION DOES NOT
PLAY PROPERLY IN THE PRESENTATION
ROOM, IT WILL NOT PLAY PROPERLY
IN THE MEETING ROOM.
You may edit your presentation up to four hours prior to
the session start time. When you are finished reviewing
and/or making changes to your presentation, you must
notify PSAV personnel that you have viewed your presentation
file before you leave the Presentation Room. They
will then transfer the updated file to the meeting room.
Security
• Presenters are required to provide identification in
order to submit their presentation, as well as to access
it in the Presentation Room.
•
•
Cameras and video equipment are not permitted in
the Presentation Room.
All files are deleted at the end of the conference, unless
permission has been granted to the conference
association to retain the presentation files.
Contact Information
For questions regarding the online submission Web site or
other technical issues, please contact Brian Reynolds via
e-mail at breynolds@psav.com or by phone 214.210.8037.
Rental of Additional
Audio-Visual Equipment
Rental of a VCR, monitor, slide projector, audio systems,
provision of extra power outlets, extra tables, stands, etc.
can be handled for an additional cost. Costs for additional
equipment will be billed to the presenting author.
Please contact David Fuller at PSAV (dfuller@psav.com),
the conference audio-visual company, if you have questions
about purchasing additional equipment.
Speaker Ready Room
A speaker ready or preparation room for you to practice
your presentation or review prior to uploading will be available
in room W106. It will be open during all hours of the
meeting including Sunday from 13:00-21:00, then again
Monday-Friday, 07:00-19:00 (closing at 17:00 on Friday).
During Your Oral Presentation
Each session room will be staffed with an AV technician
to assist in starting each presentation. Once the presentation
is launched, the presenter will control the program
from the podium using a computer mouse or the up/
down/right/left keys on a keyboard.

ASLO/AGU/TOS/ERF 2008 Ocean Sciences Meeting
Poster Presentations
Posters will be up from Monday afternoon until Thursday
evening in Exhibit Hall, WA1-WA2. All posters will be
up for viewing during this time with specific poster sessions
from 17:30-19:30, Monday-Thursday, depending
upon the topic.

The overall size of the poster boards is 48”x 94”. Two
posters are housed on each side of the board with the
useable space of 45”x 45.5”. Size requirements must be
strictly adhered to so posters fit within the space assigned.
If your poster exceeds these specifications, it may
be subject to removal.
Posters are presented depending upon the poster session
to which you are assigned. You are expected to be
available to present your poster during your designated
poster session. Poster presenters are asked to adhere to
designated set-up and tear-down instructions and times.
Pushpins will be provided.
Important note regarding poster presentations: the convention
decorator may discard posters if the presenting
author does not dismantle them according to tear-down
instructions and times.
To assist you, FedEx Kinko’s has business centers in the
area, including one inside the OCCC. For convenience,
laminated posters can be ordered through FedEx Kinko’s.
Normally, this service takes 24 to 48 hours and costs vary.
However, they are not open weekends, so be sure to plan
accordingly. Materials need to be submitted in PDF format.
