The Salish Sea Ecosystem Conference is the largest most comprehensive event of its kind in the region. The purpose of the conference is to assemble scientists, First Nations and tribal government representatives, resource managers, community and business leaders, policy makers, educators, and students to present the latest scientific research on the state of the ecosystem, and to guide future actions for protecting and restoring the Salish Sea ecosystem.
The Porpoise Conservation Society is partnering with Pacific Mammal Research in Washington on a photo ID study of harbour porpoise. We will be presenting a poster presentation on that topic at the conference.
