The purpose of
NCER is to provide an interactive forum for physical, biological
and social scientists, engineers, resource managers, planners and
policy makers to share their experiences and research results
concerning large-scale ecosystem restoration on both national and
international levels.
Conference
participants will also have the opportunity
to:
- learn about both
large and small-scale restoration efforts
- learn what others
working at these levels have learned
- learn what factors
contributed to restoration success
- learn how barriers
and obstacles were overcome
Previous NCERs
established a forum for individuals engaged in all aspects of
ecosystem restoration to exchange information and experiences. This
and future NCERs will continue the tradition by being the leading
National conference for interdisciplinary exchanges for sustainable
restoration of ecosystems.
|
|
The conference is
designed to bring together scientists and engineers, policy makers,
planners and partners who are actively involved in or affected by
all aspects of ecosystem restoration regardless of project or
program size. Participants will interact in an interdisciplinary
setting to summarize and review cutting edge science, to create and
maintain effective partnerships, and to leverage resources.
Individuals interested in planning and management activities such
as setting goals, objectives and performance measures by which to
measure success should be sure to attend.
Participation by federal, state and local agencies, tribal
governments, NGO's, private companies, water resource engineers and
managers, environmental consultants, policy makers, scientists,
researchers, modelers, environmental interest groups and students
has been the hallmark of past NCERs and will continue in NCER
2011.
|
We would
appreciate it if you could forward this announcement to any of your
colleagues who may be interested in attending and help us spread
the word.
We look forward to seeing you in Baltimore!
