About

The Committee on Long-Term Environmental Trends released their report entitled An Approach for Assessing U.S. Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration: A Gulf Research Program Environmental Monitoring Report on March 31, 2022. The report assesses the cumulative effects of multiple restoration projects along the U.S. Gulf of Mexico coast; considers the effects of acute events and long-term physical changes on restoration projects; discusses synergistic and antagonistic effects of long-term restoration activities; and recommends adaptive management strategies. The report also assesses the relevant existing resources, including available data, for informing decision-making and considers what additional efforts are needed.

The report release webinar was held on Thursday, April 7, 2022, from 2-3 p.m. ET. During the webinar, members of the committee gave an overview of the report, including discussing the key conclusions and recommendations, and also took questions from the audience.

See below for a recording of the briefing.

About

The Committee on Long Term Environmental Trends in the Gulf of Mexico will be assessing various aspects of current U.S. Gulf of Mexico restoration efforts, including the cumulative effects of multiple restoration projects and the effects of acute events (e.g., hurricanes) and long-term physical changes (e.g., sea level rise). The committee will also evaluate existing resources for informing restoration decision making and recommend adaptive management strategies.

In this open session, representatives from the National Academies’ Gulf Research Program, Gulf restoration funders, and Gulf state natural resource agencies will discuss their expectations for the study, followed by a Q&A period with panelists and committee members.
