Throughout the day, there will be regular updates from the 2009 South Sound Science Symposium being held at the Squaxin Island Tribe’s Little Creek Events Center.

Here is some background information on the event:

The purposes of the Symposium are to build from last year’s successful event, connect the region’s scientists on ecosystem issues and questions, and explore the threats and indicators unique to South Puget Sound. We will explore a variety of topics and relate them back to some central questions:

• What do these observations mean?
• Are there changes in the region’s food web?
• What are the consequences?

You can find regular updates at this link.

Here is the agenda and here are abstracts of the various presentations and posters.
