The South Carolina Sea Grant Consortium will host the 16th International Conference on Shellfish Restoration, Restoration in an Ever-Changing World, on December 10-13, 2014 in downtown Charleston. ICSR provides a forum that draws attention to shellfish restoration, and fosters the partnerships, initiatives, and exchange of information necessary to further the science and practice of shellfish restoration. ICSR’14 will focus on recent changes in our environmental, economic, and political world. These changes challenge expansion of, and provide new opportunities for, shellfish restoration efforts. ICSR’14 will address these challenges under three overall themes: Restoration of Shellfish Ecosystems; Rehabilitation/Enhancement of Shellfish Populations; Protection and Improvement of Water Quality for Shellfish Survival, Growth, and Harvest. ICSR’14 will continue to strive to highlight community-based projects in the United States, North America, and throughout the world.
