For more than six decades, scientific study has been both the impetus and guide for precedent-setting natural resource management programs in the Lake Tahoe Basin. As a result, the region is known around the world as a leading example of effective conservation in action.

About the event:

The gathering will bring together academic scientists, agency staff, and community members for a thoughtful, interactive dialogue about science as the foundation for environmental protection policy – past, present, and future.

Participants will learn how science drives policy and management in Lake Tahoe and bring back lessons on how to steward land, water, and sustainable recreation in an uncertain future marked by the growing impacts of climate change.

Conference Structure:

Interactive sessions will include panels of managers and scientists who are experts in the field. Following brief presentations and conversations, panelists will lead breakout sessions for more intimate engagement. The session themes have been chosen to align with the most pressing science questions related to contemporary resource management needs, focusing on historic, current, and anticipated issues within each theme.

Themes:

Land – Forests and wildfire, biodiversity, wetlands and watershed restoration
Water – Clarity, microplastics and trash, nearshore and invasive species
People – Stormwater, stewardship, transportation
