Congress-2016. The Congress will take place at the Kellogg Hotel and Conference
Center (<a href="http://kelloggcenter.com/" target="_blank">kelloggcenter.com</a>) on the Michigan State University Campus on June 6-8,
2016. We are expecting about 150 individuals from all parts of the globe interested
in Ecoacoustics to attend the Congress. The general components of the Congress
will include: a reception on 5 June from 5-7 pm; a banquet on 7 June with a
Keynote Speaker (TBA). There will be 4 breakout rooms for discussion of special
ecoacoustics topics and two optional field trips to: 1) a beautiful mature
deciduous forest where ecoacoustic recordings have been made for 3 years, and
2) an amazing riparian forest. The main body of the Congress will meet in the
Kellogg Auditorium where the attendees will hear an array of presentations
about ecoacoustics including topics from tropical, temperate, terrestrial,
marine and freshwater ecosystems from different regions of the world. <span> </span>To get to the Congress in East Lansing,
Michigan we suggest for those of you travelling by air to fly to the Detroit
Airport on 5 June (or earlier) and take the Michigan Flyer Bus (<a href="http://www.michiganflyer.com/" target="_blank">http://www.michiganflyer.com/</a>). Others
may fly to the Lansing Capitol City Airport and take local transportation to
their accommodation. The registration fee will be $185 for researchers and $95
for students. We will arrange transportation to the Kellogg Center where the
Congress will be held. The organizing committee consists of: Stuart Gage (<a href="mailto:gages@msu.edu" target="_blank">gages@msu.edu</a>)<span>
