Conference Overview
NCER
- The National Conference on Ecosystem Restoration
 NCER
is an interdisciplinary conference on large scale ecosystem
restoration presenting state-of-the art science and
engineering, planning and policy in a partnership
environment.
The first NCER, held in Orlando, FL (2004) with over 900
restoration practitioners participating, lead to successful
conferences in Kansas City, MO (2007) and Los Angeles, CA
(2009). NCER brings together nearly 1,000 scientists,
engineers, policy makers, planners, and partners from across
the country actively involved in ecosystem restoration.
Initiated by the University of Florida, U.S. Geological
Survey, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and USDA’s Natural
Resources Conservation Service, NCER typically entails five
days of presentations in six program tracks, multiple
workshops, poster sessions, field trips and coffee-house
discussions dedicated to both small and large scale
ecosystem restoration programs including but not limited to
the Missouri and Mississippi River Basins, the Louisiana
Coastal Area, Columbia River, the Everglades, the San
Francisco Bay/Delta, the Chesapeake Bay, Great Lakes and
Puget Sound, just to name a few.
NCER brings together scientists, engineers, managers, and
policy makers who are actively involved in and/or affected
by all aspects of ecosystem restoration. This includes
federal, state, and local agency personnel, tribal
governments, water resource engineers, water resource
managers, environmental consultants, environmental policy
managers, ecological scientists and researchers,
hydrological modelers, students, and environmental interest
groups. A premier gathering of ecosystem restoration
professionals from across the country, NCER is a
collaborative effort and we invite you to come aboard.
