Please join us for the 83rd Annual Meeting of the Northwest Scientific Association at the Owyhee Plaza Hotel in Boise, Idaho, March 28-31, 2012. Our theme this year is: Networking Science: communication, collaboration, and conservation in a time of change.

- Geo-Integration: Making sense of the overload of spatial data, portals, and analysis tools

and more!
Presentations will address a broad range of topics and issues in natural and applied sciences. Please consider attending the meeting to learn about scientific research in the Northwest and present a paper or poster to share the results of your ongoing work. In keeping with our theme, we encourage presentations that emphasize interdisciplinary research, incorporate a range of participants, or represent collaboration across agencies.
