Symposium | annual meeting

Since its inception NPSOT has held an annual meeting or symposium once a year.

In 1991, NPSOT initiated an educational project designed to explore the ecology of the many vegetation regions of Texas, through a series of symposia undertaken in conjunction with its annual members’ meeting. Each year, usually on the third Saturday of October, the meeting convenes in a different region, which will be the focus of that year’s symposium. Field trips to sites in the vicinity complement the talks, and papers presented at each symposium are published as a symposium proceddings. While the symposium may be of special interest to NPSOT members, it is also open to the public.
