All papers will be published, and both papers and posters are still being accepted through 1 January 2004. We are offering a series paper sessions of what we hope will be major cross cutting topics of wide interest, paper sessions which may be of more regional interest (N American or NW European), and a series of open workshops for less formal discussions and idea swapping. Some really outstanding post-conference excursions are also in the works, so if you can stay after the conference you will have several options to enjoy. As ever, feedback and ideas are very welcome. Student papers and posters are encouraged, and we would particularly like to share ideas on more effective coordination of our educational efforts (field schools, student support, exchange programs).
