Publicacion of full papers

It is the intention that full versions of all presentations will be made available to participants for use during the Symposium, and subsequently considered for publication in the peer-reviewed journal Mires and Peat. Therefore, full versions of all oral and poster contributions should be prepared in journal format before the Symposium. There will be an opportunity for authors to amend their papers in the light of the experiences of the Symposium before the peer review process begins.
