International Phosphorus Workshops (IPW)
The unique trait of the International Phosphorus Workshops (IPW) is the combination of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The IPW’s arose from the understanding that eutrophication of waters is related to phosphorus management on land, including rural and urban areas, and that combating any phosphorus related problems requires the proper understanding of biogeochemical mechanisms and processes underlying the terrestrial-aquatic phosphorus continuum.
The aims of IPW9 are to gather experts from natural, engineering and social sciences in order to
- Discuss concepts, which drive research and use of phosphorus in our societies;
- Review the progress in knowledge and technology related to phosphorus;
- Define questions for future research and action to solve phosphorus related problems.
These objectives will be addressed in five themes, each from an interdisciplinary perspective, including natural, engineering, socio-economic and political sciences. Novel results and methodologies shall be presented as well as science-to-application case studies.
Abstract submission is now open. Abstracts must be submitted by the author who plans to attend the conference and present the work. Individual authors can submit up to two abstracts, but no more than one oral presentation can be assigned to one author.
The deadline of abstract submission is on January 15th, 2019. For more information please visit the conference website by following the links below.
