The call for presentations is open. If you are interested in presenting on a topic related to Yukon plants, fungi, mammals, birds, amphibians, invertebrates or their habitats, you can do so via the following options:
- A 5-minute speed talk in plain language,
- A 10-minute presentation in plain language, and/or
- A poster focusing mostly on changes and their consequences.
Abstracts should be no longer than 250 words, making sure to cover the main points of new contribution. Please send the abstract, including title, authors and affiliations, and presentation option (e.g., 5-min speed talk) as soon as possible to Denny Bohmer (Dennison.Bohmer@yukon.ca).
The Yukon Biodiversity Forum provides an opportunity for a broad cross section of exposure to current field projects that relate to biodiversity assessment and monitoring in the Yukon. It is an event for community members and researchers to share information and foster partnerships, learn about Yukon plants, animals and special habitats as well as to identify knowledge gaps and species or habitats that need monitoring.
The sessions are open to all with an interest in Yukon biodiversity, its assessment, monitoring and conservation.
The Forum was created by the Yukon Biodiversity Working Group in 2000.
