Abstract | In mid-February of 2007, scientists from the Chesapeake Bay community and beyond came together to share information and identify knowledge gaps about the significance of threshold responses in pathways forward for the Chesapeake. The goal of this workshop,Thresholds in the Recovery of Eutrophic Coastal Ecosystems, was to advance the regions ability to improve interpretation and forecasting of response trajectories of the Chesapeake Bay as nutrient loads decrease. The workshop brought a mix of researchers, modelers, and managers, drawing upon the expertise of scientists who have studied aquatic ecosystems where ecological state changes have occurred, and on those with experience in implementing novel management solutions. |
