Mars Dust Cycle Workshop
September 15-17, 2009
NASA Ames Research Center
Moffett Field, California
Abstract
Instructions for Authors
We are asking for an Initial Abstract due before the workshop, and an
Extended Abstract due after the workshop. The initial abstract will
help us formulate the program; the extended abstract will serve as a
formal record of the workshop. Our motivation for the initial abstract
is to make it easy for participants to be considered for the program.
It is our experience that much of the work done for workshops takes
place after the abstracts are submitted. Thus, by asking for an
extended abstract after the meeting workshop participants will have a
chance to provide a more detailed description of their contribution
(since a talk or poster must be prepared anyway), and to revise their
abstract based on workshop feedback (which is often helpful).
Initial Abstract Deadline: Friday,
July 17, 2009, 5PM Pacific Daylight Time
General Instructions: For the July 17 deadline, submit your initial
abstract in a Microsoft Word document (no PDF's please) that provides
the following information: Author list and affiliations, contact
information for the lead author, preference for an oral or poster
presentation, and a SINGLE PARAGRAPH of text (no figures, tables, or
references please) that succinctly describes the topic and key results
(if available). Download a sample template here ___Closed____.
Extended Abstract Deadline: Friday.
September 25, 2009, 5PM Pacific Daylight Time

Abstract Submission Instructions: The process for submitting an
abstract is the same for both initial and extended abstracts. Prepare
the abstract as described above and using 'InAbst' and 'ExAbst'
referring to the initial and extended abstracts, respectively.
Name the file containing your abstract "Lastname_Initials_InAbst.doc"
or "Lastname_Initials_ExAbst.doc" where the names and initials refer to
the corresponding author (e.g., Haberle_RM.Inabst.doc). Be sure
the file is closed and resides on the same machine as your Web browser.
Upload the file below. Once uploaded the screen will display a message
stating that your abstract has been received. Should you have
problems or need assistance call or e-mail Bob Haberle at 650-604-5491
