Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation Conference in San Diego

IAN staff at lunchIAN was in full force at this year's Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation Conference in San Diego, California in early November. Our team gave nine oral presentations, one poster, and coordinated a session titled "Science communication strategies for ecosystem-based management." Adrian Jones and Tracey Saxby also joined us for a planning session for the new IAN web site. In addition to highlighting some of the great work our project staff have been engaged in, CERF provides a great opportunity to learn from informative talks and catch up with colleagues and friends in the coastal science community. UMCES has a foundational history with CERF and we were happy to take part again this year.
