National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis

Project Description

The goal of this research is to support and accelerate synthesis research on aquatic flows at the
national scale. Many research questions and management needs require national scale analyses and
approaches or require broader (national) perspective to understand the significance of what is
happening at regional scales. This project is designed to address this national scale need and context.
Research questions will center on aquatic flows, with the research workshop process designed to
allow exploration of ideas and opportunities for national-scale research that build on the data and
expertise brought from each region.
