Meet with commercial, defence, scientific and research industry colleagues, users and potential users of unmanned vehicles at the Southamton Oceanography Centre.

A multi-disciplinary international symposium convened for scientists, engineers and managers to discuss the latest advances in the scientific understanding, engineering and environmental issues of coastal processes. Offers field trips to coastal sites of Northern Ireland.

Concentrated on the science of eutrophication and hypoxia, as they affect both freshwater and marine fishes.

An international forum for exchanging information and ideas and transfer of technologies and knowledge among researchers, managers, policy makers and other stakeholders in coral reefs.

Convention features many educational talks conducted by World Renowned Cichlid Experts many who have written books, conducted collecting trips, and have kept Cichlids for decades. An awards Banquet and Hospitality suite delight and entertain guests for this 4 day event. Cichlid show, awards banquet, free beer, seminars study groups, cichlids, angelfish, discus,oscar,tropical fish,aquarium,

International Congress will focus on recent advances in underwater detection and survey techniques that are applicable to finding and surveying the wrecks of ships and their cargoes that lie on or below the sea floor.

In-situ surveillance of the sediment-water interface. International conference and workshop aiming to bring together scientists with a proven capability for in-situ marine benthic experimentation.

Continuation of a state-sponsored conference of the same name first held almost 40 years ago, and then again in 1997. CWO '02 will provide an opportunity to use California as a case study and a springboard for discussions on the best ways to create, implement, or improve ocean and coastal resource management strategies for coastal states, territories, and commonwealths located throughout the United States and the world.

Will focus on the successes, problems and challenges facing the Australian coast and examine the roles of government and community in coastal management. Field trips will show delegates the practical aspects of coastal issues, while focus papers will encourage maximum participation to develop viable actions. These actions will be road-tested during a high-profile hypothetical session on the last day.

The Conference theme is Forcing and Response in Coastal Dynamics, where the forcing may be natural or anthropogenic. This theme recognizes the importance in coastal research of looking at coastal processes as cause and effect. The theme encompasses field, laboratory, theoretical, and numerical studies, with emphasis on achieving comprehensive understanding of coastal processes and prediction of long-term and large-scale evolution of our coastlines.
