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), Los
Angeles, CA (2009) and Baltimore, MD (2011). 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.
