Williamsburg, Virginia 23185

This two-day summit is a science-practitioner dialogue about marsh vulnerability and ways our different fields and communities respond to these changing landscapes.

The 2019 Marsh Resilience Summit: From Science to Management will share the latest science on tidal marsh resilience against sea level rise in coastal Virginia and Maryland as a guide for local government, land managers, and academics to integrate ecological processes with societal needs. In this two day summit, we will present current wetland research and how this science can be used to make decisions for the landscape. We offer a science-practitioner dialogue on the most effective community response to changing marsh conditions, while also discussing additional research needs to improve future planning and decision making.
