Audubon’s Conservation Work in Maryland

Presenter: David R. Curson, Director of Bird Conservation, Audubon Maryland-DC

Audubon’s conservation work in Maryland focuses on two areas of activity: 1) stewardship and advocacy to protect and enhance the Important Bird Areas network, and 2) A climate adaptation program for tidal marshes.

Rapid sea level rise threatens the survival of the tidal salt marsh ecosystem during the current century.  Audubon is working with Federal, State and NGO partners to ensure that Maryland’s salt marshes and their birds do survive, by implementing innovative strategies including thin-layer sediment application, removing salt-stressed trees to facilitate the transition of dying forests to salt marsh, and enhancing tidal exchange through hydrological management.

Heavy hors d'oeuvres, coffee, tea and soft drinks will be provided.

Location: Kings Landing Park, Wisner Hall

This free lecture is made possible through funding from Cove Point Natural Heritage Trust.
