Applications now Open! | NSF RCN Workshop on land-ocean connectivity along the North American Pacific coast Aquatic Carbon Biogeochemistry of Coastal Temperate Rainforests Feb 8 – 10, 2017 Talaris Conference Center, Seattle, WA, USA Please join us in Seattle, WA, for the inaugural workshop of the newly- funded NSF Coastal Rainforest Margins Research Network. We are bringing together a select group of hydrologists, aquatic biogeochemists, ecologists, and others interested in processes occurring across the land-freshwater-ocean continuum for a small group workshop. Our goal is to synthesize the current state of knowledge of freshwater carbon biogeochemistry along the Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest region into a multi-authored peer reviewed publication, and to solidify a scientific community to build a research agenda on processes acting across temperate rainforest coastal margins into the future. Applications are due November 15, 2016 and space is limited to 35 participants. Some travel funding is available. To apply, please visit coastalmarginsnetwork.org/workshops. Workshop organizers: David Butman (University of Washington), Bill Floyd (BC Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations; Vancouver Island University), Eran Hood (University of Alaska Southeast) and Suzanne Tank (University of Alberta) Coastal Rainforest Margins RCN steering committee: Allison Bidlack (University of Alaska Southeast), Brian Buma (University of Alaska Southeast), David Butman (University of Washington), Sarah Bisbing (California Polytechnic State University), Dave D’Amore (US Forest Service), Brian Hunt (University of British Columbia; Hakai Institute), Suzanne Tank (University of Alberta), Ian Giesbrecht (Hakai Institute)
