Great Chapter Meeting in Ohio!

Our Fifth Annual Chapter Meeting concluded April 14 in Wooster, Ohio - three days of symposia, papers, posters and field trips. See the Annual Meeting page for news.

The meeting theme: Ecological Restoration and Sustainability - Partners for the Future. We are grateful for the generous support of this year's meeting hosts - the Ohio State University's Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center and the School of Environment and Natural Resources.
