Dear Sirs, 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Aves Uruguay - G.U.P.E.C.A., member of BirdLife
International,&nbsp; has the pleasure of inviting you to participate in
the Third International Conference on Biology and Conservation of
Albatross and Petrels, which it will take place in the Torre de los
Profesionales Conventions and Meetings Centre of Montevideo (Uruguay)
from the 23 and the 27 of August of 2004.&nbsp; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; From 1995 people of different parts of the world
involved in the topic are meeting every 5 years in order to keep up to
date on biological and demographic information of the species of
Procellariiformes (Albatrosses and Petrels) and to share the advances in
research relating to the evaluations and control measures of the
mortality of these spectacular birds; mortality which has&nbsp; led to
the present situation in which 20 of the 24 albatross species have
conservation problems.&nbsp; Following the structure of the previous
conferences (Hobart-Australia, 1995 and Honolulu-U.S.A., 2000) this one
will have specific sessions on: 1) Systematic and Genetics, 2) General
Biology and Behaviour, 3) State and Population Tendencies, 4) Population
Dynamics, 5) Energetics, Physiology and Illnesses, 6) Feeding, 7)
Incidental Mortality and its Reduction and 8) Politics of Conservation
and International Initiatives. 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We encourage you to send us your opinion /
contribution, since the possibility of incorporating new sessions or of
carrying out parallel meetings on specific topics is still open if a
concrete proposal exists.&nbsp; 
 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If you are interested, the Local Organising Committee
will send you, by this means, additional information on inscription, the
program, events and parallel activities, accommodation, etc. We are
hoping shortly to publish all the information on this conference on a web
page created in order to keep you up to date on developments. 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We would greatly appreciate your collaboration in
passing on this information of the event to people you&nbsp; consider
might be interested in participating and/or if you could inform us of
their names and addresses so that we can contact them.&nbsp;&nbsp; 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hoping you will be able to participate in this
important initiative, we greet you with the highest esteem.&nbsp;
