IAN presents at the Baltimore Ecosystem Study’s Annual Meeting

Katie May Laumann, Ann Foo, and Conor Keitzer attended the annual meeting of the Baltimore Ecosystem Study (BES) from October 12-13. Since 1997, the BES has been at the forefront of understanding socio-ecological systems in urban environments. A key theme of this year’s meeting was understanding the causes and consequences of systematic racism on people and the environment. Katie May and Conor shared work that IAN is doing to assess climate adaptation preparedness to help coastal communities prepare for climate change. The BES is a truly remarkable group of researchers and educators working to advance our understanding of urban socio-ecological systems.
