  <p align="center"><strong>Deadline for Submission:  November 19, 2015 </strong><br>
    Only complete proposals submitted by 5:00 PM Eastern Time  (2:00 PM Pacific) <br>
    will be considered.</p>
  <p>We invite  proposals for Ignite ESA Sessions, Workshops, Special  Sessions, and Field Trips for ESA's 101st Annual Meeting. Join us in sunny Fort Lauderdale next summer as we begin ESA’s second century with sessions  that explore our meeting theme, “Novel Ecosystems in the Anthropocene.”<br>
    <br>
    With a  rapidly changing climate, altered hydrological and nutrient cycles, dominance  of large regions by agricultural and urban ecosystems, and massive movement of  species to new continents, the Earth has entered a new epoch characterized by  human influence. Understanding the basic principles of ecology will be more  important than ever before, to predict how new combinations of species in new  environments will develop into functioning, novel ecosystems. We encourage  proposals that address ecosystem structure and function responses to multiple  drivers of change, management of developing novel ecosystems, and potential  benefits and problems that society will face as we progress into the  Anthropocene Epoch.</p>
  <p>Although session  proposals related to the meeting's theme are encouraged, any timely and  coherent subject of broad interest to ecologists will be considered. We also  welcome proposals that explore interdisciplinary connections with areas of  social and natural science outside of ecology or that relate to ecological  education at any level. All proposals will be peer reviewed using criteria  described in the proposal calls. <br>
    <br>
    If you have any questions, please contact the Program Chair, Lee Frelich (<a href="mailto:freli001@umn.edu" target="_blank">freli001@umn.edu</a>) or the Science Programs  Coordinator, Jennifer Riem (<a href="mailto:jennifer@esa.org" target="_blank">jennifer@esa.org</a>)</p>
