[Coral-List] ICRS abstracts due this Friday- please consider submitting to Session 36- Multistressors

[David Kline]

Hello,
 Just a reminder that the abstract submission deadline for the ICRS meeting is
this Friday at Midnight, Central Standard Time USA. Anyone who plans to
present at this meeting must submit by this time in order to have the
abstract considered.

We would like to encourage you to submit abstracts for presentations
in *Session
36 *of the 13th International Coral Reef Symposium in Honolulu,
Hawaii: ASSESSING
AND ADDRESSING THE EFFECTS OF MULTIPLE STRESSORS ON CORAL REEFS TOWARDS
DEVELOPING EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT AND POLICY RESPONSES     SESSION 36_ICRS
2016 <https://www.sgmeet.com/icrs2016/sessionschedule.asp?SessionID=36>

*Session Overview: *Over the coming decades, the combined stresses of
elevated temperature, annual bleaching, ocean acidification, and other
stressors (e.g., pollution, eutrophication, overfishing, sedimentation,
etc.) could have critical impacts on coral reefs.  These stressors may, or
may not, interact with others to drive changes in the diversity and
function of coral reefs.  However, the underlying mechanisms and
interaction of these processes are not well understood, therefore, most
ecosystem management programs fail to protect and enhance reef health. In
addition, the application of laboratory derived results to field conditions
is not always straightforward.  In this session we will explore the
interactive effects of multiple stressors on corals from the molecular to
ecosystem level scales in both laboratory, field, and lab-field comparative
studies. Applications of these findings to reef management are also
welcome.  In order to develop a more robust and nuanced understanding of
physiological and ecological impacts of climate change related stressors,
more integrated laboratory and field studies should be developed, and we
hope that this session will encourage this approach by bringing together
experts employing either methodology. Our understanding of the interactive
effects of multiple stressors on corals is critical to our ability to
identify species, populations, traits, and/or genes that impart resilience
to reef organisms, and for improving our ability to model, manage, and
protect future coral reef diversity and persistence.

In this session we will explore the integration of laboratory studies (such
as -omics, biochemical, molecular and cellular assays, multi-generational
manipulation studies, etc.) with field studies (such as natural gradients,
CO2 vents and seeps, transplant studies, *in situ* mesocosms and FOCE style
experiments). We hope to have talks on a variety of topics, including but
not limited to laboratory based studies on the physiological effects of
ocean acidification, temperature stress and multi-stressors, field
experiments, and studies that integrate both approaches. Hypotheses
developed in the laboratory and in aquarium systems often have associated
experimental artifacts, and their conclusions and implications must be
validated in the field under natural environmental and ecological
conditions.  In order to develop a more robust and nuanced understanding of
physiological and ecological impacts of climate change related stressors,
more integrated laboratory and field studies should be developed, and we
hope that this session will encourage this approach by bringing together
experts employing either/both methodologies. We further welcome talks
providing novel approaches for the study of multiple stressors from
micro/nano to organismal/population/community/ecosystem scales. For
