New York Marine Sciences Consortium: Annual Meeting

John Marra, Brooklyn College's representative to the Board, attended the annual meeting of the New York Marine Sciences Consortium, held at SUNY-Maritime up in the Bronx (Throg's Neck). The meeting began with a meeting of the Board, and John Tanacredi was elected to serve on the Executive Committee, taking the place of John Waldman who rotated off. The Board welcomed Chester Zarnoch, from Baruch College, as a new member. After the Board meeting, the general meeting was in McMurray Hall, overlooking the western reaches of Long Island Sound. We heard interesting presentations from Radley Horton (member of the Mayor's Task Force on Climate), Chris Gobler (SUNY Stony Brook) and Jim Gilmore (NYSDEC).
