[MAIPC] [Maipc-brd] Call for Abstracts (Please Spread the Word)

[Marc Imlay]

Hi non-native invasive weed  warriors. Here are some potential themes that need updates;

 

1.	Control of Japanese Stilt grass by reducing deer to a natural density , typically 20/square mile as Catoctin Mountain National Park has done with managed hunts. 
2.	Success in restoration of opossums that control deer ticks and lyme disease the primary invasive that keeps people out of parks or even in their back yards, as in Greenbelt Maryland.  
3.	Has anyone found major kills of any invasive species including Japanese Honeysuckle, fig butter cup, beef steak plant, porcelain berry, etc. etc. If so we can report it to research agencies and universities etc. for research into a potential native bio control. 
4.	Winter success stories such as all the Japanese Honeysuckle up the trees.
5.	Ther are many, many more potential themes to present at the annual MAAIPC fall Conference In Juniata College, PA, Aug 4-6. Please pick your own . Marc Imlay

Board members, please share this widely.  We’re behind on getting this out by quite a bit.

 

And submit your own abstracts; we’re allowed to tell people what we do when we’re not planning conferences!

Dear All,

 

We are now seeking submissions for oral presentations and poster presentations for the upcoming 2019 Mid-Atlantic Invasive Plant Council Conference this August 5th and 6th.  Please send/forward to relevant listservs, colleagues, researchers, and friends.

 

ORAL PRESENTATIONS:  The 2019 conference will use a one-track format; there will be no concurrent sessions.  In addition to plenary talks, there will be several themed sessions of 7-minute oral presentations followed by discussion. We are using this method so that our speakers are provided a full audience for their presentations and so that our listeners can hear every presentation.  The 7-minute talks should:

 

Minute One – Grab the audience’s attention

Minute Two – Summarize your project/idea

Minutes Three through Six – Provide the meat of your topic

Minute Seven – Summarize your project/idea again

 

Presentation Formats

Abstracts can be submitted for either oral or poster presentation.  Authors should indicate their preference for an oral or poster presentation during the submission process. However, the Program Committee will make the final allocation of presentation format as it will not be possible for all to give an oral presentation.  We encourage all those submitting abstracts for oral presentations also submit a poster – there will be plenty of time for discussion during the evening Poster Pub session on August 5.

 

Abstract Submission Guidelines  <mailto:-%20Please%20submit%20abstracts%20to%20Nathan%20Hartshorne%20at%20info.maipc at gmail.com.%20> - Please submit abstracts to Nathan Hartshorne at info.maipc at gmail.com.

*         All submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the Program Committee and an acceptance notification will be sent to the presenting author by email no later than July 2, 2019.The email will confirm the mode of presentation (oral or poster).

 

Abstract Format

Abstracts will be reproduced in the abstract publication exactly in the form they are submitted. Authors are therefore kindly requested to adhere to the following guidelines. Failure to do so may result in the abstract not being accepted.

*         Title: This should be a maximum of 20 words and typed in sentence case.
