The Atlantic Estuarine Research Society (AERS) has a ri ch history in the Chesapeake region tracing back to 1949. Soon after beginn ing, a partnership with the New England Estuarine Research Society gave ris e to the Estuarine Research Federation (later, ‘Coastal and’ was added to t he beginning of the name). AERS brings together a diverse group of students , scientists, managers and educators from the mid-Atlantic U.S. to discuss estuarine and coastal environmental issues and policies. The official AERS history written in 1952 refers to a culture of “enthusiasm, informality, an d active participation by all members” and that the “membership believes th at the strength of the organization lies in its local character, relatively small membership, and frequent meetings”, all of which remain true today. At this spring meeting, AERS’ 147th meeting, we seek to continue this rich tradition by welcoming all AERS members to contribute to our discussion of all aspects of estuarin e and coastal environmental issues and policies. Research and current commu nications in all disciplines are welcome. Additionally, research and commun ications regarding the diversity of the scientists and science-adjacent car eers, especially forward-looking presentations, are also welcome.
