United States Society on Dams Annual Conference

The United States Society on Dams Annual Conference will be held in Orlando, United States, and invites submissions for presentations that contribute to the discourse on dam-related topics. All submissions must have a registered presenter by the designated deadline, and any submission that fails to meet this requirement will be subject to removal from the event. Presenters are required to prepare a document that is 2-5 pages long, which will be included in the electronic conference proceedings. Specific guidelines for preparing full papers or expanded abstracts will be shared upon acceptance of the submission.Presentations are structured to last 25 minutes, allowing 20 minutes for the presentation itself followed by 5 minutes for questions. There is also an opportunity for longer sessions, lasting either 50 or 100 minutes, for which a detailed agenda must be submitted, including proposed speakers and their roles. Participants are encouraged to collaborate with co-authors and co-presenters, particularly young professionals who can assist in drafting abstracts or presenting. The conference will also accommodate specialty tracks that run concurrently with other sessions, allowing for focused discussions on specific topics. Abstracts must be submitted through CATALYST and will be evaluated based on their scientific and engineering merit, relevance, and overall quality. It is important to note that due to the limited time and space, not all submissions may be accepted into the conference program.
