5th National Conference on Coastal and Estuarine Habitat Restoration
Restore America's Estuaries is now accepting proposals as part of its Call for Dedicated Sessions, Presentations, and Posters for the 5th National Conference on Coastal and Estuarine Habitat Restoration--Preparing for Climate Change: Science, Practice, and Policy. The submittal deadline is quickly approaching and is now a week away!
The Conference Program will address all aspects of coastal and estuarine habitat restoration, in all habitats, at all scales, and all regions. Habitat restoration offers great promise for reversing the trend of habitat loss and degradation, and is a crucial component of comprehensive ecosystem restoration, protection, and management.
The overarching theme of the Conference is "Preparing for Climate Change: Science, Practice, and Policy." Every aspect of restoration will be affected by climate change. Because of its power to effect change, habitat restoration is a key element in adaptative and mitigating climate change strategies that cuts across all disciplines.
The Conference will be held November 13-17, 2010, at the Galveston Island Convention Center, Galveston, Texas.
