Among the many topics covered this year are: a review of the 30 year history of marine animal disentanglement, the return of the Cape's gray seal population, how citizen scientists are playing an important role in understanding bird populations, a changing climate and the distribution of species, and new technology giving scientists more insight into coastal erosion.

The conference will also feature presenters who took part in the inaugural event, including ecologist John Portnoy who will review salt marsh restoration efforts over the past 30 years, and naturalist Blair Nikula, who will discuss a long-running project that surveys the winter waterfowl on Cape Cod's ponds. Educator and naturalist Peter Trull, a presenter in 1996, is also on this year's schedule and will focus on engaging young people in natural history study.

The registration fee for the conference is $20 on or before March 7 and $25 thereafter. The fee for registered students and Mass Audubon staff is $15.
