Proceedings

After Acceptance of Your Abstract, Choose to Submit a “Full Paper” or an “Extended Abstract”

We are pleased to announce that following the acceptance of your abstract for the GeoAsia 8 Conference, you will be invited you to submit a “full paper” or an “extended abstract” for the conference proceedings.

The full paper should be 6-8 pages in length, while the extended abstract should be 2-3 pages. Guidelines for the submission of both options will be announced at a later date, so please stay tuned for more information.

Submitting a full paper will allow you to delve deeper into your research and present a more comprehensive study at the conference. On the other hand, an extended abstract provides a concise summary of your work, making it accessible to a wider audience.

We understand that each presenter has unique preferences and time constraints, so we aim to provide flexibility in the submission process. Whether you choose to submit a full paper or an extended abstract, we look forward to showcasing your valuable contributions at GeoAsia 8.

Please keep an eye out for the upcoming guidelines and deadlines for submission. We are eager to receive your abstracts as we prepare for an enriching and insightful conference.
