Gulf Oil Spill Scientific Symposium - Consortium for Ocean Leadership
More Information
The BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill is having significant ecological impacts on the Gulf of Mexico and coastal states
in the region. As the nation responds to this unprecedented spill, non-federal scientists can play a major role in the
efforts to understand and combat the impacts of this spill. The Consortium for Ocean Leadership is hosting this symposium to identify for the federal agencies the existing gaps in the scientific knowledge; opportunities
to fill those gaps; and priorities for short- and long-term research needs to understand the impact of the spill on the
Gulf ecosystems and human health. Ocean Leadership is working with NOAA and other government organizations as
partners of this event. June 2-3

The Wetland Foundation® ...enhancing wetland education and research
More Information
The Wetland Foundation was initiated in 2008 by Drs. Karen L. McKee and Irving A. Mendelssohn. Following 30-year careers as wetland scientists, McKee and Mendelssohn began formulating a plan to leave a legacy that would support wetland education and research. Their goal was to establish a foundation and trust fund that would provide financial support and guidance to students of wetland science.
Together, they have published more than 200 scientific articles, technical reports, and book chapters on various aspects of wetlands. During their careers as teachers and scientists, they trained more than 70 graduate and undergraduate students and postdoctoral scientists, providing advice, financial support, and assistance in finding jobs in wetland science and related areas.
