Dear Friends of Hubbard Brook:

I don't know how many people I have heard say that the cooperators' 
meeting is one of their favorite events all year. So it gives me great 
pleasure to announce that registration is now open for the 2017 Annual 
Cooperators’ Meeting, to be held at Hubbard Brook on July 12-13. Meeting 
information and the on-line registration form are accessible from the 
main page of the Hubbard Brook website, or directly at: 
http://hubbardbrook.org/events/coop_meetings/register/ 
<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__hubbardbrook.org_events_coop-5Fmeetings_register_&d=DwMGaQ&c=c6MrceVCY5m5A_KAUkrdoA&r=MFh2AWAPkX8OjEGF4DVna8dQkABhP70hNTqEBsmMib0&m=FvVZiIoZ2RBe7XRo7ljnUzyKbxfPU_IEga0ZjFOTmto&s=qy8d83DRXJve5opIvZA647iJ8Cur83ddgBAOhm4vnVc&e=>

Deadline for registration is *June 2 for presentations* and June 30 to 
attend the meeting without making a presentation. We expect to post the 
presentation schedule a month before the meeting. So _the deadline for 
registering a presentation is quite firm_.

We will continue to offer the options of 5 and 10 minute time slots (3 
or 8 minute presentation with 2 minutes for questions). Presentations in 
5 or 10 minute slots are for in-progress (data to report) or completed 
studies only. Please be aware that because we avoid concurrent sessions 
and limit the duration of the meeting, it may be impossible to 
accommodate all interested speakers. Hence, the SCC discourages 
presentations that are based on studies being done at other places with 
no clearly-stated relationship to the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study.

Back by popular demand, we are again offering a third presentation 
option for 2 minute, 1 slide only, pico or “lightning” talks. Pico talks 
may highlight a research result or contain announcements. Announcements 
of proposals or new research (no results yet) will only be accepted as 
pico talks. But please note a pico talk is not intended for lightning 
delivery of a research project. Pico talks are strictly limited to one 
slide with no clicks or animation to pack in more content. For those 
interested in suggestions for a successful pico talk (or if you'd like 
to push the concept to the limit and consider a Femto talk) see the 
reaction to an EGU pico session at

if not sooner!
