Registration and call for poster abstracts are now open for the State of the Science on Offshore Wind Energy: Workshop on Cumulative Impacts to Wildlife. The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) is hosting its second State of the Science Workshop <http://www.nyetwg.com/2020-workshop> on Wildlife and Offshore Wind Energy on May 5-6, 2020 in Rye Brook, New York. The first day of the workshop will consist of plenary presentations to summarize the current state of knowledge on cumulative impacts to wildlife from offshore wind energy development, including a review of major stressors to marine mammals, discussions of population consequences of disturbance (PCOD) modeling, and cumulative noise impacts to marine mammals from pile driving and other sources. The second day of the workshop will primarily consist of smaller workshops focused on developing research plans to improve our understanding of cumulative impacts, with one of the breakout groups focused on marine mammals. To register for the workshop, reserve a discounted room at the conference hotel, or submit a poster abstract, visit the workshop webpage: www.nyetwg.com/2020-workshop. The deadline for registration and abstract submission is April 13, 2020. -- Julia Gulka Marine Biologist Biodiversity Research Institute 276 Canco Rd., Portland, Maine 04103 (207) 839-7600 x303 www.briloon.org
