INSTRUCTIONS FOR<br />

POSTER PRESENTERS<br />

Posters will be placed on large poster boards. There will be two posters<br />

per side so posters must be no larger than 45.0 inches high by 45.5 inches<br />

wide. Because two posters will be mounted side by side, it is very important<br />

that your poster not exceed these dimensions. Posters will adhere to<br />

the boards using push pins that will be provided.<br />

Poster presenters are asked to adhere to the designated set-up and teardown<br />

instructions and times.<br />

All posters will be assigned a number, and these numbers are available<br />

online and will be included in the conference program. Poster presenters<br />

have been notified of their poster session’s time and day. If you will be<br />

giving a poster presentation, you will be expected to be available to present<br />

your poster during your designated poster session.<br />

Posters numbered 1 through 245 will be presented on Tuesday. Posters<br />

numbered 246 through 479 will be presented on Thursday.<br />

POSTER SET UP<br />

Poster presenters must be available to put up their posters on Monday, 18<br />

February, 2013, from 12:00 to 17:00 in Exhibit Hall E.<br />

POSTER TEARDOWN<br />

Posters may be taken down on Thursday, 21 February, 2013, from 19:30<br />

to 20:30, immediately following the conclusion of the poster session that<br />

evening. If you are not able to dismantle your poster at this time, you may<br />

do so on Friday morning from 8:00 to 10:00. Please be aware that if you<br />

are not able to remove your poster by 10:00 on Friday, the convention<br />

decorator will discard any posters that remain on the boards.<br />

INSTRUCTIONS FOR<br />

ORAL PRESENTERS<br />

Talks will be scheduled in 15-minute time slots. We strongly encourage<br />

a presentation of no more than 12 minutes to allow three minutes for<br />

discussion and to entertain questions from those in the audience. The time<br />

limit will be strictly enforced to facilitate movement between sessions.<br />

No recording is allowed in any of the session rooms during the meeting.<br />

PREPARING YOUR ELECTRONIC PRESENTATION<br />

The audio visual company for the 2013 <strong>ASLO</strong> Aquatic Sciences Meeting<br />

preparing your presentation for the meeting and/or submitting your<br />

presentation electronically prior to the meeting:<br />

Email: CMSsupport@psav.com<br />

Phone: 214-210-8006<br />

ADVANCE SUBMISSION<br />

Speakers will receive an email with login credentials and instructions to<br />

submit online. Please make sure to upload all media files required for<br />

your presentation. Any necessary video or audio files not included in your<br />

20<br />

online upload folder along with your PowerPoint, will cause your presentation<br />

to fail in the meeting room. Please see the list of preferred media<br />

formats in the “Additional Information” section below. Speakers who<br />

submit in advance will have a faster check in at the Presentation Room.<br />

Although online submission may not be required, it is strongly encouraged.<br />

The following presentation file types are acceptable for ONLINE submission:<br />

• Microsoft Office PowerPoint (.ppt), (.pptx)<br />

• Adobe Acrobat (.pdf )<br />

MICROSOFT POWERPOINT TIPS<br />

PowerPoint embeds image files directly into the file when you save them,<br />

while video files are not embedded. Only a link is made to the video<br />

file. Copy the video clips you want to insert into the same folder as the<br />

PowerPoint file. This will eliminate the problem of PowerPoint losing the<br />

link to the file. Be certain to bring the video files and the PowerPoint files<br />

to the meeting.<br />

Please try to keep the video files size to less than 20MB if possible. Use<br />

short video segments when needed<br />
