About Workshop XVI

Dear Colleagues,

We have a great pleasure to invite everyone interested in different application of stable isotope techniques to the ESIR Isotope Workshop XVI, which will take place on July, 11-14, 2023 in Salzburg.

ESIR 2021 is the sixteenth Workshop of the ESIR, in a series of scientific events that started in 1992 in Lublin, Poland and continued with Książ, Poland (1994), Budapest, Hungary (1996), Portorož, Slovenia (1998), Kraków, Poland (2000), Tallinn, Estonia (2002), Seggauberg, Austria (2004), Leipzig, Germany (2005), Cluj-Napoca, Romania (2007), Złotniki Lubańskie, Poland (2009), Budapest, Hungary (2011), Freiberg, Germany (2013), Zadar, Croatia (2015), Baile Govora, Romania (2017) and Lublin, Poland (2019).

Conference topics

♦ Isotopes in Earth and Planetary Sciences

♦ Isotopes as Tracers of Past and Present Climatic Changes

♦ Isotopes in Ecological and Environmental Studies

♦ Application in Archeology and Forensic

♦ Applications in Speleology

♦ Isotopes in Hydro(geo)logy

♦ Isotopes in Biology and Medicine

♦ Inert Gas and Radiogenic Isotopes

♦ Methodological and Technical Advances in Isotope Studies

♦ Industrial Applications of Isotopes: Energy and Mining

The interdisciplinary nature of the conference presents a unique opportunity for the exchange of information and promotes both collaborative and personal relationships amongst its participants. It provides first-hand opportunities to report advancements and innovations in a highly critical and stimulating environment.

Presentations

Scientific program of the conference will include plenary lectures, oral presentations and posters.

Lectures, oral presentations and posters during the Conference will be in English.

To encourage young scientists and PhD students to present their best contributions, a panel of scientific experts will select the best oral presentations and posters presented to be awarded in the competition for the Best Presentation and Best Poster.

Venue: Salzburg

The participants will have also the opportunity, after the scientific meetings, to visit several interesting places in Salzburg, administrative center of the State of Salzburg and the fourth-largest city in Austria.

The authors are kindly asked to upload their presentations before the actual time block of the session starts. A lecture room assistant will be available for any help. The notebook in the lecture room is equipped with the software of Windows 10, MS Office 2013, the newest version of Adobe Reader.

Best poster and best oral presentation competitions

Dear Young Participants,

We announce the "Best poster presentation" and "Best oral presentation" competitions among those who are not older than 35 years. The jury will score the posters and presentations according to the following criteria (more or less the same as it was in the previous Workshops):

♦ overall impression

♦ clear description of the problem and the applied methods

♦ clear formulation of the conclusions

♦ background knowledge (members of the jury will ask questions to see how familiar the young researcher is with the topic of his/her poster)

 

The winners of the each competition will be awarded. The result of the competition will be announced during one of the conference dinners.
