GC53D:
Creating Convergence Among Academic, State, Federal, and NGO Initiatives to Enhance Sustainability and Resilience of Coastal Systems Posters


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 51428

Session Description:
Sustainable, resilient coastal environments require scientific advancements from interconnected studies covering a range of disciplines to effectively evaluate reciprocal feedbacks between coupled natural and human processes. For example, impacts of climate change prompt humans to alter the coastal land-margin which has implications for ecological systems as well as socioeconomic development, policy-making, and management of natural resources on multiple scales. A major goal of institutions worldwide (e.g., academia, state, federal, and NGO) is to produce transdisciplinary research outcomes that will inform society about sustainability practices and influence governance and decision making. This session integrates coastal systems studies that advance fields related to natural and social interactions with the broad aim of better understanding, implementing, and achieving convergence among the various coastal research communities. We invite presentations that address topics across the full spectrum of coastal sustainability and resilience, and encourage submissions from the engineering, natural sciences, and social sciences disciplines.
