The Fourth International Conference on the Biology and Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels was held in Cape Town, South Africa over the five-day period Monday 11 to Friday 15 August 2008. The members of the local organizing committee would like to thank all the participants for their individual contributions to the conference. The conference was, by all accounts, hugely successful. Participants wishing to submit their poster or oral contributions to the conference proceedings, please prepare these in the style of the international seabird journal Marine Ornithology and submit to the proceedings editor, Ross Wanless, by 30 September 2008. The intention is to publish accepted papers (which will undergo the usual editorial and peer-review process) as a special issue of the journal. Click here for more details.
