The New York Marine Sciences Consortium held its 4th annual science symposium “New Green Infrastructure Approaches to Improve Water Quality in the Lower Hudson River and Coastal New York” on October 7 at the Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory. Wade McGillis and Ray Sambrotto of LDEO organized an informative and exciting meeting. Following the formal meeting and simultaneously with a reception, students of consortium member institutions presented their work during a poster session. The undergraduate winners were Emily Dernbach and Candice Marcos from Adelphi University. The graduate student award went to Patrick Fitzgerald of Stony Brook University. Congratulations to all. The Board of the Consortium wishes to thank our hosts at LDEO along with the New York Sea Grant Institute and the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University for financial assistance to support speakers’ travel and cash awards for the students who won the poster contest.
