We would like to let you know that the 8th International Symposium on Gas Transfer at Water Surfaces (GTWS), a 5 yearly event, will be held in Plymouth, UK, on 19-22 May 2020. The focus is on the physicochemical and biogeochemical processes that govern atmosphere-water gas exchange and fluxes, which include turbulence, shear, breaking waves, bubbles and natural and anthropogenic surfactants. The scope of the conference covers all domains where atmosphere and water meet, which include but are not limited to, fresh water, estuarine, mountain, glacial, marine (coastal and open ocean) and polar regions. Topics include: field observations, laboratory and numerical studies, near-surface processes, biological effects including surfactants, the micro-layer, remote sensing, global scale processes and many more.
Financial support to help support Early Career Scientists and to promote women in science is provided by the European Space Agency (ESA). The deadline for applying for early career support is 15 November 2019. Further information can be found at www.pml.ac.uk/GTWS2020 and in the flyer attached. For any queries contact:
