Florida Bay and Adjacent Marine Systems Science Conference The annual science conference has been an integral part of the interagency Florida Bay and Adjacent Marine Systems Science Program since the program began in 1994. The conference is intended for three primary purposes: 1) to provide agency and academic scientists working in the area the opportunity to share research with their peers thereby facilitating collaboration and cross-fertilization amongst agencies, institutions, and individuals, 2) to regularly update the Florida Bay Science Oversight Panel (SOP) so that they can recommend necessary programmatic changes to the Program Management Committee (PMC), and 3) to publicize preliminary research results prior to publication since some are relevant to ongoing restoration management decisions. To date, six conferences have been held (October 1995, December 1996, May 1998, November 1999, April 2001, and April 2003) the latter being a joint conference with Greater Everglades Ecosystem Restoration.
