| Held each fall in a different host city, the annual Montana AWRA meeting brings together up to 200 water scientists who report findings of their research year. This two-day meeting features several concurrent sessions, student awards, a poster session and entertaining banquet, and a local field trip to hydrologic study sites. It’s also an excellent venue for presentation of student research papers.
The work of the Montana AWRA officers, in conjunction with administrative and planning assistance from the Water Center, make for an excellent scientific communications venue. |
