Abstract Submission
We invite students at all levels (undergraduate, masters and doctorate) to submit an abstract! Submissions from research at any stage (including early development) and in any of the disciplines related to Earth and Environmental Sciences are welcome. AESRC is the perfect venue to present your work to your peers, as well as academic and industry representatives to receive meaningful recognition and feedback!

• Author affiliations are to be written after the authors names; if all of the authors have the same affiliation, then the affiliation follows the author’s names. If multiple affiliations are present, then you may use numbers in superscript following each authors name, followed by numbered affiliations.
