Conference Description

The Gordon Research Seminar on Biogenic Hydrocarbons and the Atmosphere is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

Biogenic hydrocarbons are intricately connected to our environment, being influenced by and, in turn, influencing the state of the atmosphere. The inaugural Biogenic Hydrocarbons and the Atmosphere GRS aims to explore hydrocarbon-atmosphere dynamics, with a focus on the interactions, feedbacks, and effects between hydrocarbons and the outside world. Drawing on research performed at multiple scales and through a variety of methods, this seminar will provide an informal, interactive environment for young investigators to dig deep into the hydrocarbon-atmosphere research world outside of their expertise.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Biogenic Hydrocarbons and the Atmosphere" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
