LSF is asking members of the seafood industry to come together and discuss how to keep their businesses competitive and sustainable. In rounds of meetings throughout the coast, industry members will share ideas about how to adapt to coastal change and what they need to make those adaptations work.
We want to highlight adaptation strategies created by those most affected by coastal changes — the shrimpers, crabbers, oyster fishers, finfishers, dockworkers, and processors — who are at the heart of our coastal seafood economy and culture.
Please join us:

Join LSU Center for River Studies Director Clint Willson for an informative talk about the powerful body of water in our own backyard: the Lower Mississippi River. Dr. Willson and his students study the river’s dynamic processes on the 90-foot by 120-foot scaled physical river model that was made possible through a partnership with the Louisiana Coastal Protection Restoration Authority.
Doors open at 5 p.m. for networking and light refreshments, and the talk will start at 6 p.m. Remember, people of all ages are welcome, so please spread the word and join us for a fun and informative night!
