Like the successful 1st and 2nd conferences held on Crete in June 2005 and June 2007, respectively, the 3rd conference will focus on underwater acoustic measurements, the applied technologies and the results obtained. Inputs from theoretical and computational underwater acoustics are also most welcome.

Contributions from all areas of underwater acoustics will be included in this conference. The conference will comprise plenary sessions with invited keynote lectures. A prominent series of structured oral sessions, with invited papers given by leading international scientists, will be organized by key persons actively engaged themselves in the fronts of research in underwater acoustics. Moreover, most recent research results will be presented in contributed papers forming a basis for regular oral and poster sessions. All papers presented at this conference will be published in proceedings to be made available to all registered participants on the first day of the conference. A younger scientists "Olympic Games" in Underwater Acoustics will be arranged with medals to be handed over at the ancient Olympic Stadium.

Period for conference:
Sunday 21st June through Friday 26th June 2009

Conference venue
The conference will be held at Nafplion, Greece
