Submit an Abstract
The Monadnock Region Natural History Conference features presentations on a diversity of natural history topics for a general audience, with a focus on conservation research, ecological restoration, land management, and environmental education in the Monadnock Region. This is an opportunity to share your work with others who have an interest in local natural history; make connections with other scientists, land stewards, educators, and backyard naturalists working in the Monadnock Region; and think collaboratively about what’s next for the conservation community of southwest New Hampshire.
Topics
We typically offer sessions on wildlife, wetlands and stream ecology, forest ecology and management, Mount Monadnock, community science, human connections to nature, cultivating belonging in the outdoors, and more.
Guidelines
Proposals for oral presentations and poster presentations are both welcome. Oral presentations are allotted 20 minutes for presentations and 5 minutes for questions. Posters may be up to 24″ x 36″ in size. To accommodate as many presentations as possible, some people who submit proposals for oral presentations may be asked to consider a poster or 10-minute lightning talk instead. Students and backyard naturalists are encouraged to submit! Abstracts should be no longer than 1,500 characters.
Deadline
In 2025, the conference took place on November 15. Abstracts for oral presentations were due by September 19, and submissions for poster presentations were due by October 1.
