  Call for abstracts - deadline extended to March 4, 2005

The OCEANS 2005 MTS/IEEE Conference will take place in Washington, D.C. 
September 19-23, 2005.

"One Ocean" emphasizes the vital need for global cooperation and 
engagement to protect our internationally connected waters, as well as 
the critical role that the "One Ocean" plays in global commerce, 
weather, jobs, food supply, recreation, national defense, and mineral 
and energy resources. "One Ocean" reinforces the many interrelationships 
among the scientific and engineering disciplines, and this conference 
provides an unequal led opportunity to network with colleagues from 
across the entire spectrum of oceanic and marine interests.

With nearly 100 Areas of Interest at the conference, this will be a 
unique opportunity to interact with colleagues in all ocean disciplines.

 
OCEANS 2005 MTS/IEEE will be a major forum for ocean scientists, 
engineers, industry end users and suppliers, technologists, educators 
and researchers, policymakers, and the public throughout the world to 
present their latest research results, state-of-the-art technologies, 
future concepts, and innovative ideas to their peers and many others who 
are involved in the future of our "One Ocean."

 
Call for Technical Papers, Tutorial Sessions, and Student Program: 
Deadline for submitting abstracts for technical papers has been extended 
to March 4, 2005.

 
Exhibition Hall: We have space for over 200 (8'x10') exhibition booths.
