Inhaltsangabe

Variously called a workshop, roundtable, and forum, the gathering was held in October 2007 and included representatives of a number of agencies, organizations, science departments, and corporations. The goal was to identify research gaps and opportunities for collaboration among US government agencies to meet the challenges of sustainability posed by the need to maintain critical ecosystem services, support the development of alternatives to conventional fossil fuels, and manage oceans and coastal areas. A recurring theme was the importance of strengthening connections between researchers and decision makers to shape federal research priorities. No index.
