General remarks

  • Abstracts should be short (400 words), clear, concise and written in English with correct spelling and good sentence structure.
  • Mathematical symbols and equations must be typed in, and metric symbols should be used. Figures and tables must not be included!
  • We recommend that the abstract be carefully compiled and thoroughly checked before submission, in particular with regard to the list of authors, before submission in order to avoid last minute changes.
  • The submission of an abstract carries with it the obligation that it is actually presented at the meeting by the author or, at least, by one of the co-authors.

Abstract submission fees (ASF)

  • An abstract submission fee (ASF) of 25 gross must be paid for each abstract submission.
  • ASFs can only be paid by credit card or PayPal.
  • Abstracts are only processed and available for the session organization by conveners after the payment is completed. Please note that this is a processing fee and not a publishing fee.
  • ASFs are not refundable in case of an abstract withdrawal, rejection or double submission. The fees collected cover the cost to process the abstracts whether or not one attends the meeting.
  • The ASF does not register you for the 9th European Conference on Severe Storms. Separate registration fees apply.
