The total length of abstracts must fall between 2000 and 4000 characters, including spaces; no more
than two figures may be included. Text and figures are limited to a maximum of two A4 sheets, one side
only. Abstracts with less 2000 characters will be refused.
The title of the work should appear on the first line; authors’ names, affiliations, contacts (e-mail,
telephone, fax) should appear on the following lines.
Authors, guided by the keywords for the various Sessions, should indicate for which Session
they intend to submit the work, however the Scientific Committee shall use his description in this
regard.
Since all works accepted by the Scientific Committee have equal value, they will all be published in full in
the Symposium Proceedings. The Commissions will invite six or seven works for oral presentations from
those, received for each Session, which they believe will favour interdisciplinary discussion between
Sessions.
For best international diffusion of Proceedings it is desirable that the works should be written in
English. The file, in MS-Word (*.doc, *.docx), Rich Text Format (.rtf), Open Document Text (.odt), o
Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) format, should be sent to the Scientific Secretariat by e-mail,
[email protected], no later than 25 November 2013.
Papers will be accepted based on their scientific value by the Scientific Committee, whose
decisions are final.

Oral presentations may only be made using software for electronic presentation: MS-PowerPoint, Adobe
Acrobat, OpenOffice.org Draw.

FORMALITIES AND REGISTRATION FEES
Considering that
for each accepted work (oral or poster communication) an enrollment fee must be paid, with exclusion of the
work as penalty,
three categories of enrollment are foreseen:
By March 2014
After April 2014
220 €
300 €
50 €
80 €
Category A: Participants enrolled in Category A will, upon
registration, receive with the certificate of attendance, necessary
stationery items and brochures. When the symposium proceedings
volume is ready it will be sent to Category A participants. Enrollment
in this category, moreover, permits the participant to vote for best
posters. Each communication (oral or poster) has to be registered in
this category; registration permits the enrolment of only one author;
other authors of the same paper can enroll in category B or C.
The organization of Symposium will offer to members of this category
the Social Dinner.
Category B:
– Co-authors not enrolled in category A
– Graduate and other university students who are not presenting oral
or poster communications belong in this category; a university card
or declaration from the department of study is required.
– Participants to the symposium, who are not presenting oral or poster
communications.
Participants in this category will receive, upon registration, with the
certificate of attendance, necessary stationery items and brochures as
those in Category A; the symposium proceedings will also be sent
when ready.
Category C (daily enrollment):
– Co-authors not enrolled in category A,
– participants to the symposium, who are not presenting oral or poster
communications,
on a day-by-day basis shall enrol in Category C
This type of enrolment can be made with the Symposium Secretary on
the appropriate day. Category C enrolment does not include the
participant’s packet (as in Categories A and B), nor the symposium
proceedings.
30 €
The presence as listeners can also be completely free; but in this case certificates of
attendance will not be issued.
Payment: Enrollment fees should be made payable to Ce.S.I.A with reference to “Quinto Simposio
Monitoraggio costiero” through the Cassa di Risparmio di Firenze, Agenzia Agraria di Firenze using
the following bank coordinates:
BIC-SWIFT CRFIIT3F146
IBAN IT26 C061 6002 8460 0000 0030 C01
Enrollment of works selected as Oral Presentation
The enrollment fee for works selected as oral presentation must be paid no later than 31 March
2014. In case that fee is not paid within the specified date, the work will be moved to poster
presentations.
Social dinner: A social dinner is planned for the third day; participants from Categories B and C,
accompanying persons as well as unenrolled attendees, may still attend the social dinner upon
payment of 35 € to the Symposium Secretariat.
