Abstract Guidelines
Each author citation should begin with a new line and be formatted as follows: first name, middle initial, last name and a comma, then institution and a comma, then mailing address and a comma, then city and a comma, then state (country if not USA) and a comma, and finally zip or postal code. Remember to cite the authors in the order that you would like the names to appear (i.e. the primary author first, the secondary author second and so on).
All abstracts must be in English, using metric units. Do not include chemical or mathematical formulae, Greek characters, illustrations, figures or photos. Do not use any formatting such as italics, bold, or subscript (CO2 becomes CO2). Do not indent paragraphs. Use a single space between sentences. The body of the abstract must adhere to a maximum count of 200 words, not including the title and the author citations. Please use the following example abstract as a guide for filling out the Abstract box on the call for abstracts page.
Abstract: please limit to 200 words or less
Example: John E. Doe, Department of Oceanography and Coastal Sciences, Coastal Fisheries Institute, School of the Coast and Environment, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA 70803 This is where my abstract gets written. Note that it is less than 200 words long. If you have any questions about formatting email me at gssabstracts@disl.org and I will give you some hints/guidance on how to write your abstract so that what your abstract appears the way you want it to appear. The rest of this is just filler so that it is clear that this is the material that goes in the abstract box.
