2008 AIAS 10th anniversary
The Australian Institute of Alpine Studies was first suggested at a meeting of scientists at Charlottes Pass. It was launched at the Global Threats conference held between Feb 17-19 1998 and has grown to a membership of over 120. The aims as originally set out have been well and truly met. Originally we planned a bi-annual meeting but in fact in the ten years to date we have held a meeting each year in locations such as Canberra, Jindabyne, Falls Creek, Melbourne and Hobart. In addition, the ten years has seen the production of 20 newsletters and the publication of the 148 page “Biodiversity in the Snowy Mountains” in 2002. This coming February will see the 10 th birthday of the AIAS. Dates have still to be finalised but we will be holding a 10 th birthday meeting over two days in February 2008 with seminars at Sawpit Creek (just out of Jindabyne) followed by a day in the field on the Kosciuszko Main Range. Looking at a variety of ongoing research projects.
