[from Deep-Sea Life Vol 13]
The first workshop of the IR Working group on mid-ocean ridge islands and seamounts will be convened over three days (19 to 21 September 2019) in which participants will be able to exchange thoughts on priorities for research on seamounts and islands near to mid-ocean ridges. It will cover all geological, biology and oceanographic processes. The workshop will be hosted by the Instituto Hidrográfico, Lisbon (Portugal), within the beautiful grounds of a previous convent (Convento Trinas). A provisional structure for the three days is:
19 September – introductory talks and poster session covering all areas
20 September – breakout groups by subject area
21 September – breakout groups by field area (multidisciplinary)
