The organizing committee of the 29th Annual Symposium of the U.S. Chapter of the International Association of Landscape Ecologists invites you to the 2014 Annual Symposium to be held in Anchorage, Alaska, May 18-22, 2014. This will be the first time Alaska has been the host of a US-IALE Symposium and we hope you'll join us and experience our diverse landscape. Alaska is the land of extremes and has a unique cultural component to their landscapes.
