Estrategias para la Gestión de Recarga de Acuiferos (GRA) en zones semiáridas
The ISMAR6 symposium attracted 280 delegates, about half from outside the US. 52 papers were presented and a similar number of posters focussed lively debate. The papers are available in the conference proceedings and hard copies or CDs are available from
www.acaciapublishing.com
The venue for ISMAR7 was proposed and accepted. It will be hosted in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates in fall of 2010. The organizing committee will be led by Schlumberger Water Services and the Environment Agency Abu Dhabi (EAD), with support from other water agencies in the UAE and the Middle East. |
