The CERF 2015 scientific program offers four days of timely, exciting and diverse information on a vast array of estuarine and coastal subjects. Presentations will examine new findings within CERF’s traditional scientific, education and management disciplines and encourage interaction among coastal and estuarine scientists and managers. Additionally, the Scientific Program Committee plans to convene special sessions and workshops that promote intellectually stimulating discussions of the Grand Challenges in Coastal and Estuarine Science:

  • Managing and mitigating the risks of climate change
  • Synergistic effects of ocean acidification with hypoxia, eutrophication or other conditions
  • Polar estuaries and coasts
  • Making data work
  • Cities by the sea
  • Estuaries under threat
  • Multiple uses
