15th Annual River Restoration Symposium
At Skamania Lodge, Stevenson, Washington, USA
February 2nd through 4th, 2016

The intent of the Symposium is to convene, share information, and foster dialogue on a multi-disciplinary approach to stream restoration and related watershed and river sciences, hence a broad range of speakers and topics is encouraged. Our participants typically include restoration planners, designers, engineers, biologists, hydrologists, geomorphologists, regulators, scientists and land/resource managers. On the occasion of our 15th anniversary symposium, we are highlighting the following featured themes:

• Adapting to Climate Change
• Aquatic and Riparian Invasive Species
• Columbia River Treaty Implications
• Floodplain Functions and Values
• Tribal Restoration Interests, Issues and Efforts

The RRNW Symposium format is organized to encourage dialogue on pertinent topics that forward the practice and science of river restoration. We feature a plenary format over the three-day program of invited speakers and accepted oral presentations, delivered in topically grouped sessions. Oral presentations are 20-minutes long, including Q&A. Selected poster presentations will be exhibited during a special session facilitating additional interaction with authors and colleagues. Additional program highlights are short-courses on Monday February 1st and a field trip on Friday February 5th.
