State of the Coast conference

STATE OF THE COAST CONFERENCE – CALL FOR ABTRACTS

Deadline for abstract submittal: February 10, 2012

The Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana (CRCL) and Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) is pleased to announce the most comprehensive forum on the protection and restoration of Louisiana's coast. State of the Coast was created to gather hundreds of scientists, federal and state agency personnel, elected officials, and other interested parties to share ideas and resources to save Louisiana's coastal wetlands. The forum will be held June 25-27, 2012 in New Orleans.

The mission of the State of the Coast conference is to provide a forum to learn from recent advances in science and engineering as they relate to coastal Louisiana, to ensure that relevant and current knowledge is applied to existing and future coastal restoration and protection efforts, and to use that information to effectively inform management, policy and decision making.
State of the Coast will consist of three full days of presentations by leading experts (you!) as well as invaluable networking opportunities for those invested in the future of Louisiana's coast.

Oral presentations and posters are encouraged to submit.

Submit abstracts to StateoftheCoast@crcl.org by February 10, 2012.
Attached please find abstract submittal directions.
