General information

       
    Guidelines for Abstract Submission
and Author Information
 
  1. Abstract should be 250 words or less. Limit to a single A4-size page maintaining 1.5 inch margins on the top, bottom and sides of the page.
     
  2. Provide a concise title. Capitalize all first letters of every word in the title using bold 12 point Times New Roman font. Type the remainder of the material (authors, affiliations, and text) in plain Times New Roman 12 point font. Include 4-6 keywords (separated by semicolons) from the presentation and type them 2 spaces below the main body of the abstract.
     
  3. Provide a single space between the authors and their affiliations and denote each of the author’s affiliation using numerical superscripts placed after his/her name. Affiliations should include complete mailing addresses (including email addresses), without abbreviations. Provide a double space between the affiliation and main body of the abstract. Put an asterisk beside the name of the presenting author. Use single line spacing for the main text of the abstract.
     
  4. Spell all words completely upon their first use and define abbreviations by placing them in parenthesis after the full word. Abbreviations are acceptable thereafter, but do not begin the sentence with an abbreviation nor use it anywhere in the title. Do not use figures, tables, or references in the abstract. Italicize all species names.
     
  5. Please submit the abstract as a Microsoft Word attachment using the following naming convention: Last name of first author followed by “doc”, for example, “_________.doc”. If you are first author of multiple submissions, number each file sequentially, for example, “__________1.doc” and “__________2.doc”.
     
  6. Please indicate on the abstract submission whether you prefer an oral or a poster presentation.
     
  7. Email the abstract and related questions to Dr. Edgar Amar (eamar@aqd.seafdec.org.ph) not later than 15 October 2007.
