Upcoming Meeting

California Current Ecosystem-Based Management (CCEBM) Initiative Working Meeting

Santa Cruz, CA (January 2008)

Overview
This two day meeting, co-hosted by COMPASS with the University of California, Santa Cruz, provided an opportunity to assess and advance the science needed for comprehensive ecosystem based management (EBM) along the US West Coast. This meeting stemmed from recognition that despite general agreement on the need for EBM and its key elements, details on how to apply scientific knowledge to facilitate EBM implementation are lacking. Ninety participants included social and biogeophysical scientists from a range of academic, government and private institutions, as well as participants with expertise in management and policy. The overall goals of the meeting were to: 1) evaluate a scientific approach for examining tradeoffs among ecosystem services, 2) evaluate and advance the science needed for scientifically-informed comprehensive EBM along the U.S. West Coast, and 3) establish new collaborations among a diverse group of natural and social scientists, managers and policy makers who work at a range of institutions.
