What is
Sclerochronology?
 Sclerochronology
is the study of physical and chemical variations in the
accretionary hard tissues of organisms, and the temporal context
in which they formed. Sclerochronology focuses primarily upon
growth patterns reflecting annual, monthly, fortnightly, tidal,
daily, and sub-daily increments of time entrained by a host of
environmental and astronomical pacemakers. Familiar examples
include daily banding in reef coral skeletons or annual growth
rings in mollusk shells. Sclerochronology is analogous to
dendrochronology, the study of annual rings in trees, and
equally seeks to deduce organismal life history traits as well
as to reconstruct records of environmental and climatic change
through space and time.

Who Should Attend?
Anyone interested in and working on the
formation and interpretation of growth increments in accretionary
hard parts of invertebrate and vertebrate organisms should attend
this conference. You should plan to attend if you wish to increase
your knowledge and understanding of state-of-the-art sclerochronological research, if you desire to present your research
in a forum of like-minded scientists, or if you want to learn of the
many realized and potential applications of this exciting field of
study.

Conference Overview
It has been over 25 years since publication of
the definitive “Skeletal Growth of Aquatic Organisms” and there have
been many exciting developments in the field of sclerochronology
since that time. Methodological advances have been considerable,
the range of species being included in sclerochronological research
has expanded, and the applications are more diverse than ever. However, sclerochronology is a multi-disciplinary pursuit, and
because of that the lines of communication among the diversity of
researchers in this field are not well-established. We are
convening the 2007 International Sclerochronology Conference as a
venue to foster enduring lines of communication and bring to light
the many recent advances in this field of study.

Conference Structure & Themes
The conference themes include such topics as
biomineralization and vital effects, methodological
state-of-the-art, modeling and statistical analyses, and the diverse
applications of these techniques. The conference themes will
provide a strong foundation upon which to establish and enhance
lines of communication and to build collaborations that will be a
springboard for future research. The meeting format, a single forum
with no concurrent sessions, has been chosen to maximize
opportunities for interaction. Thus, the number of oral
presentations will be limited although poster presentations are
welcome and will be emphasized in their own session. Those
presentations focusing on cutting edge methodologies, technologies,
and applications will be featured in the oral sessions.

Call for
Abstracts
Individuals are invited to submit abstracts on all aspects of
sclerochronology including, but not limited to: biomineralization,
growth increment formation, vital effects, visualization and
sampling methods, modeling and statistical analyses, applications to
marine, non-marine, climatological, paleontological, and
archaeological systems, as well as general and historical aspects of
sclerochronology. Abstract submissions will be used to select oral
presentations, and ALL abstracts, both oral and poster, will be
published in the conference book of abstracts. Abstracts will also
be posted on the Sclerochronology website following the conference.
- The Abstract Submission Deadline has
been extended to April 13.
If you wish to make an oral presentation or present a poster,
please submit an abstract no later than April 13, 2007.
Abstracts MUST be submitted ONLINE via this web site.
Please Note: All students participating in the 1st
International Sclerochronology Conference will be eligible for a
Best Oral Presentation Award and a Best Poster Presentation Award.
If you are a non-student meeting attendee and you wish to assist
with judging these presentations, please notify Bill Arnold (bill.arnold@myfwc.com).
You must pre-register for the
conference in order to be considered for an oral or poster
presentation. Thank you!

Purpose
The 2007 International Sclerochronology
Conference (ISC07) will bring together scientists from academia,
museums, government institutions, and other backgrounds to discuss
the latest techniques and concepts in the rapidly developing field
of sclerochronology and to manifest new ideas and collaborations
that will move this science forward.
Key goals include:
-
Bringing together scientists from the many and varied disciplines
engaged in sclerochronological research to create new opportunities
for collaboration;
-
Expanding the temporal, spatial, and taxonomic range of
sclerochronological research;
-
Developing or enhancing methods to validate and optimize
chronological proxies;
-
Increasing student involvement and excitement;
-
Enhancing our awareness and appreciation of others working in this
field;
-
Providing a departure point for future sclerochronology conferences.
It is hoped by the conference organizers that
this meeting will be the first in a continuing series of
International Sclerochronology Conferences that will be held in a
different location every two or three years. We welcome your
suggestions and involvement in this regard.
