A landmark conference on the ‘environmental future of aquatic ecosystems’
(http://www.icef.eawag.ch) is to be held in Zurich, Switzerland, 23-27
March 2003. Leading scientists from around the world are to predict the
potential alternative state(s) of each of the 21 marine and freshwater
ecosystems by the year 2025 with respect, in particular, to climate change,
human population growth and fisheries decline (see abstracts on website).
We anticipate substantial attendance by governmental departments,
international agencies and NGO's. Registration fees for this significant
venture are substantially reduced upto January 15th 2003 and student rates
are also available (http://www.icef.eawag.ch).
