The 5th international Symposium on Urbanization and Stream Ecology (SUSE5) will be held February 12 to 15, 2020 in downtown Austin, Texas (USA) at the Palmer Events Center on beautiful Ladybird Lake. The intimate meeting of ~120 leading scientists, practitioners, and students will continue in the SUSE tradition of sharing and promoting collaborative, interdisciplinary approaches to managing and restoring streams in urbanizing landscapes. Such “wicked problems” require expertise in a variety of disciplines (e.g. natural and social sciences, engineering, landscape architecture, etc.) and SUSE5 seeks to bring together diverse teams to collaborate on real case studies spanning a gradient of Austin stream settings. Case study results will ultimately be shared with City of Austin staff to potentially advance to conceptual planning and other “pre-implementation” evaluation phases.
The draft agenda also includes opportunities to share individual research and contribute to global collaborations for articles in up to two special issues of relevant journals (e.g. see special issues from Freshwater Science for examples of past SUSE products: 2005, 24(3) pp. 585-737; 2009, 28(4) pp. 908-1098; 2016, 35(1) pp. 272-443). Interested registrants should be prepared to submit titles and abstracts (< 150 words) with their registration. Accepted abstracts will be invited to present at a radically reformatted poster session where posters are both easier to prepare and facilitate substantially greater knowledge transfer relative to conventional posters.
