The 2009 Diadromous Species Restoration
Research Network Science Meeting will be held July 22 to

speakers and poster sessions, networking and workshop

migrate between fresh and salt waters. Housed at the
Senator George J. Mitchell Center for Environmental &
Watershed Research at UMaine, the Diadromous Species
Restoration Research Network is an NSF-funded network
whose goal is to advance the science of diadromous fish
restoration, promote state-of-the-art scientific
approaches to multiple-species restoration on a
watershed scale, and facilitate interactions among
scientists, managers, and stakeholders. |
