The Estuarine & Coastal Science Association held a conference at the University of Cumbria's Fusehill Street campus, Carlisle, from the 20th to 22nd May 2024. This was the first time this event had been held in, and focusing upon, the North West region of England. The conference provided an excellent opportunity for discovering the wide range of coastal/estuarine projects in progress around Cumbria and adjacent counties.
Attendees and speakers represented over 20 national and regional organisations; such as Manchester, Bangor, Reading and Heriot-Watt universities; the Marine Management Organisation, National Oceanography Centre (NOC), Centre for Ecology and Hydrology and Solway Firth Partnership. The conference was co-organised by Andrew Withers from the NOC and Dr Angus Carpenter, Theme Lead for Conservation & Ecology at University of Cumbria's Centre for National Parks & Protected Areas.
