Salmon in a Changing Climate

Save the date! State of the Salmon will host an international workshop designed to explore implications of climate change to wild Pacific salmon and identify practical management strategies to mitigate undesirable impacts.

Please join State of the Salmon for Salmon in a Changing Climate: Practical management options for an era of environmental change on November 15-17, 2011. This international, participatory workshop will examine whether decisions about management of salmon and their habitats can be practically informed by the newest scientific insights on expected responses of wild Pacific salmon to climate and environmental change. A steering committee of leaders in the management, sustainable harvest, and research sectors will guide the agenda and sessions to ensure diversity of perspectives and creative engagement of participants.

Features of Salmon in a Changing Climate:
Conversations among managers, fishing industry leaders, scientists and the conservation community about practical management responses to climate driven changes in salmon populations and ecosystems
Briefings on emerging research insights on expected responses of salmon and their habitat to climate change
Interactive training on new tools for design and implementation of monitoring programs for salmon, their resources, and management interventions
A spirited, thought-provoking reception to launch the discussion
