As you are planning for 2005, do you see new issues and challenges on the horizon? Do you anticipate taking new approaches to old problems?
Here are a few of the articles our writers are looking at for the New Year. Does one of your projects fit the topic? Are there other subjects that would better meet your management needs?
- Mapping and Monitoring the Undersea Landscape—How are the data and information that are being generated by rapidly expanding ocean observing systems being used by coastal resource managers? Are there management issues for which these data will be vital?
- Megahomes—In coastal areas around the country, many small houses have been demolished and replaced by larger houses that often are out of scale with surrounding homes. Have coastal managers found a way to balance community character and the desires of developers?
