Overview of the ISAR-8 program
Core scientific programs in ISAR-8 consist of Plenary, Regular, and Special sessions. Scientific interaction in ISAR-8 will be performed in the format of oral and poster presentations. Following Regular Sessions are designed by the organizing committee (program and local organizing committees): 1) Atmosphere; 2) Ocean and sea ice; 3) Rivers, lakes, permafrost, and snow cover; 4) Ice sheets, glaciers, and ice cores; 5) Terrestrial ecosystems; 6) Marine ecosystems; 7) Geospace; 8) Laws, politics, and economy; 9) Language, culture, and Environment; and 10) Engineering for sustainable development.
The Program Committee of ISAR-8 will select the special sessions from the proposals that have been submitted via the form for the Special Session Proposal before the deadline. The Program and Local Organizing Committees deeply appreciate all proposers for their proposals.
Special Sessions
The conveners determine the acceptance of individual abstracts
(accept/reject), the format of presentations (oral/poster), orders, and
the time length of each oral presentation. They are also responsible for
facilitating the presentations during the session.
An oral session is normally made of one or multiple of the 90-minute
slot(s); a minimum of 5 speakers are required for each slot. The number
of allocated slots for each oral session will be determined based on the
number of oral speakers and the availability of rooms.
