Abstracts for oral and poster presentations can be submitted using the online submission form. Submissions will be accepted until Sunday February 15, 2026. Student poster submissions will be entered into the poster competition, with cash prizes for the winning undergraduate and graduate posters.
Authors of oral presentations may wish to include their submission in the organized special sessions on Forest Health, Ecosystem Restoration, Geological Hazards, or Lichenology. Oral presentations that are not submitted to one of these special sessions will be grouped by theme into general sessions. Poster submissions can also be assigned to one of the above special sessions, and will be grouped accordingly during the poster session.
Abstracts should be no more than 250 words in length and should describe the research goals, and preliminary or final results or outcomes. For more information, please see the 2026 Annual Meeting Abstract Submission page.
