The Fifth Albatross and Petrel Conference (IAPC5) will be taking place next week in Wellington, New Zealand.

The Conference Programme and Abstracts booklet is now available online, which also usefully includes a list of conference delegates along with their e-mail addresses.  Both oral and poster abstracts are included in the booklet.

A scan through the abstracts reveals that papers will be presented that cover 24 of the 30 species of albatrosses, petrels and shearwaters currently listed within the Agreement.
