(3) We will publish it not as a trivial collection of abstracts, but as a next volume of a series with a nice title; the reference for your publication will look as following: J. Smith, Studying organisms and ecosystems of this region (title). – Ecological Studies, Hazards, Solutions. 2011. Vol 17. P. 20-21. The editorial and advisory boards of this edition include prominent scholars from over 30 countries.
(4) All participants, including the distant participants, will receive a certificate of participation in the international conference on request; this Certificate may help you in your further career and you can mention it on your CV.
