There will be no parallel sessions. Instead, in a more informal work-shop like atmosphere, colleagues are invited to present and discuss their data and opinions (15+5 min lectures or posters). All aspects of cryoflora (snow and glacier ice algae) are covered, including biodiversity, taxonomy, community structures and interactions, cultivation, cell biology, physiology and adaptation, ecology, bioalbedo, physics and chemistry of melting snow and glaciers.
