Share Your Water Quality Science with Decision-makers and Scientists at a Statewide Symposium

Abstract and Poster submission forms are due by February 29, 2020. Please fill out this form for a chance to present: https://forms.gle/epPVEEhxao7JUWBm8

There is also opportunity for shorter lightning talks for young scientists doing related research.  And for interested vendors hoping to host a table to show innovative products that could be useful to the water data science community.

• Accessibility: What can we do to improve access to and use of water data?
• Adaptation: What can we do to minimize and mitigate changes impacting water in California?
• Agency: How do we engage better with communities – who have everything at stake at water and data decision making – focusing on collection and use of meaningful water data and information?
• Change: How are water-related resources and systems changing?
• Communication: How can we do better at communicating what we know (and don’t know!) to all audiences?

In addition to these broad themes, abstracts addressing the following specific topics will be prioritized for inclusion in the Symposium program:

• Data visualization and communication
• Innovative monitoring tools
• Open data
• Statewide monitoring programs
