Welcome to the Early Life History Section of the American Fisheries Society's annual conference - CLICK ON THIS HOTLINK TO GO TO THE SECTION'S HOMEPAGE! |

|
The Early Life History Section (ELHS) is an interest-discipline subunit of the American Fisheries Society (AFS) with an international membership of over 300 scientists. It is the only organisation of this kind devoted to interests in the early life history of freshwater, estuarine, and marine fishes, and related matters. Through its newsletter, STAGES, and its web page, the AFS’s ELHS encourages and facilitates exchange of knowledge and ideas, updates members on current research, publications, meetings and other events, provides feature articles and reviews and communicates Section and pertinent AFS business and concerns.
The annual Larval Fish Conferences (LFC) that serve as the focal point of ELHS activities evolved from a series of informal, freshwater-oriented, symposia that began in 1977. The current LFCs, which are hosted and sponsored by various organisations throughout the world, cover the complete spectrum of research (from all habitats and geographic locations) related to fish early life history.
A list of all the LFCs can be found on the ELHS web page and on the menu to your right. The dates, locations, host institutions and publications resulting from these meetings are all available.

About this site |
|
|
This site is intended to
- provide as much information as possible on past, current, and future ALFCs. Information on conferences prior to LFC2005 will be provided through hotlinks to archival pages, or to pdf files containing the conference programs. All ALFCs from 2005 onward will remain online right here.
- facilitate organizing/hosting the ALFC. In addition to this self-manageable conference web site, over the coming weeks we will implement modern (and secure) internet commerce tools so that conference registration fees - and Early Life History Section affiliate membership dues - can be paid by credit card online. So, if you are not already a member - JOIN US BY CLICKING HERE - or click on the "Join the Early Life History Section" link on the banner at the top of this page and follow the instructions that you wil find there.
- make it possible to rapidly communicate with ELHS members, and participants in past ALFCs, using the infamous “bulk e-mailings” that delegates of LFC2002 are overly familiar with! Hopefully, these will not get labelled as SPAM by your institutional servers…?!
Information on future conferences will be added as it becomes available. Most of the details regarding LFC2005 are already available at the link to your right (click on the poster image!). A splash page with preliminary information on LFC2006 is also now available at the link to your right.
Please contact Howard Browman if you have any questions, concerns or suggestions about the content of this web site.
