Time is running out to register for the 5th International Conference on

future of aquatic ecosystems' (http://www.icef.eawag.ch) is to be held
in Zurich, Switzerland, 23-27 March 2003 and cheap registration is
available until January 15th only. 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). Many of the reviews have been
published in the journal Environmental Conservation and the outputs of
the conference will be published by Cambridge University Press in a
2-volume book which each registrant will receive for free. Registration
fees for this significant venture are substantially reduced upto January
15th 2003 and student rates are also available
