ASLO Aquatic Sciences Meeting 2027
You can meet Tage at the ASLO Aquatic Sciences Meeting in San Juan, Puerto Rico on 28 February – 5 March 2027. We look forward to sharing our solutions for lab, field and underwater research.
About ASLO Aquatic Sciences Meeting
The theme for this year’s meeting is Waterscapes Under Pressure: Drivers and Opportunities. Like our personal health, we must consider how today’s choices affect the environment tomorrow. Durable human-made materials like microplastics and PFAS accumulate, causing unforeseen issues. Challenges like climate change, industrial byproducts, and tourism pressure ecosystems. Addressing these requires understanding history, current conditions, and future goals for sustainability. Since all water systems are interconnected, assessing and caring for aquatic environments is as vital as managing our own health.
This year’s meeting looks at the drivers and stressors that shape aquatic systems, and at how research can support sustainable solutions. It invites contributions on three themes:
- how the aquatic continuum functions
- formal and informal opportunities for water education and engagement
- approaches that enable underrepresented groups to contribute to, and benefit from, water research, policy and governance
Understanding aquatic systems often starts with measuring chemistry where the processes happen: across sediment-water interfaces, in biofilms and microbial mats, or around organisms. Sensors resolve gradients of analytes such as oxygen, sulfide and pH at the microscale, in the lab and directly in the field.
Stop by to talk about your system and which setup could fit it, from lab microprofiling to field deployment.
