The Chesapeake Bay Sentinel Site Cooperative is a group of researchers, land managers, and government agencies who integrate science findings from local observations across the Chesapeake Bay region to improve planning and management decisions regarding sea level rise and ecological changes. For the past decade, members of the Cooperative have monitored marsh sites across the Chesapeake Bay region to track how marshes have withstood increased water levels. This presentation will share CBSSC findings and associated efforts to further understand and communicate these ecological trends.
Taryn Sudol coordinates the Chesapeake Bay Sentinel Site Cooperative as part of her role as Coastal Resilience Coordinator at Maryland Sea Grant. Since 2018, her work has focused on promoting a greater understanding of the ecological and social effects of sea level rise. She works with scientists, land managers, government agencies, community members and other stakeholders to plan for adaptation measures and actions.
