As part of the 99th Annual Meeting of the Ecological Society of America ( August 10-15, 2014) several universities are working with ESA along with local institutions and agencies to coordinate a large land planning demonstration project that celebrates the American River Parkway running through downtown Sacramento, providing a lasting example of how ecology, urban planning, floodplain management, and conservation work together to increase urban resilience and human well-being.
The Earth Stewardship Initiative is currently looking for students or recent graduates to participate in this exciting demonstration project. This is a paid research opportunity. Please visit the website at www.EarthStewardshipESA2014.com <http://www.earthstewardshipesa2014.com/> for more information and to apply. The deadline to apply is June 17th. *Alexander J.
