You are invited to submit an abstract for an oral or poster presentation at
the "Arabian Coral Reefs: Insights from Extremes" conference, to be held
from November 11-13, 2019 at New York University Abu Dhabi.

The purpose of this conference is to bring together leading regional and
international coral reef scientists to discuss recent research, and to open
opportunities for dialogue and collaboration among participants. The
geographic scope of this conference includes the Persian/Arabian Gulf, the
northwestern Indian Ocean (Arabian Sea, Sea of Oman), and the Red Sea. This
three day conference will include themed symposium sessions, each opened by
a keynote address from a renowned expert in the field. Themed topics will
include biogeography and evolution, coral community structure and dynamics,
reef fish community structure and dynamics, molecular ecology and
physiology, biophysical processes, as well as a session on reef
conservation and management.

This conference is being supported by the NYU Abu Dhabi Institute, the
research wing of New York University Abu Dhabi. Travel support grants are
available to provide flights and accommodations for presenters; requests
for support can be made during the abstract submission process. Decisions
on acceptance and funding will be based on abstract quality and relevance
