2005 Edwin W. Pauley Summer Program in Marine Biology

Ecological Risk Characterization for Coral Reefs

The 2005 Edwin W. Pauley Foundation course will focus on how to perform an Ecological Risk Assessment (ERA) in a coral reef environment and how to transform the results of the risk assessment into management and policy action and ultimately legislative regulation consideration. The course is designed for resource managers and regulatory scientists from countries with limited resources who need a management tool to help them make risk assessment decisions.

Tuition costs for the course, including room and board, have been paid through the generosity of the Edwin W. Pauley Foundation. In addition, there are scholarships available for assistance with airfare. Interested persons should complete an on-line application by July 15, 2005. At this website, persons can find additional information on the course, including a course syllabus (October), instructor resumes, and a suggested reading list for the course. The enrollment in the course is limited to 16 participants.
