Welcome to Portland and CERF 2015

Welcome to CERF 2015, where you will find an impressive schedule of valuable

workshops, first-rate research, and networking opportunities! You will also have the

opportunity to experience the best Portland has to offer at our social events and during

your free time.

A long-standing CERF tradition is our friendly and collegial conference environment and our unwavering support of early career scientists. This tradition continues in Portland with many scheduled events, but I also encourage senior scientists to interact with the students, post-docs and junior researchers at the many opportunities available during CERF 2015. Our attendees include nearly 700 students and early career scientists, and we can all benefit from engaging with this group that will one day determine the future direction of coastal and estuarine science.

My term as CERF President has been an extremely rewarding one, and I have had great guidance and support by CERF’s Board, its membership and our office staff. CERF has amazing members whose volunteer work makes this organization special and deserving of continued support by coastal and estuarine scientists. For those attendees who have not previously been CERF members, I encourage you to join the CERF family. I know you will be glad you did.

CERF has always provided great science and great fun at its conferences, and CERF 2015

will be no exception. Enjoy the meeting and your stay in Portland, and please say hello

when you see me in the hallways and at social events.

Kenneth L. Heck, Jr.

Welcome from the Conference Committee

The co-chairs of CERF 2015 welcome you to Portland, The Rose City, aka

Beervana, aka Portlandia. It’s a marvelous, quirky city full of great food

and drink, all kinds of music, outdoor opportunities at every hand, and

great views. We won’t mention the rain. It’s great to have the CERF

conference return to the Pacific Northwest.

The 17 member Scientific Program Committee, led by Leila Hamdan, John Rybczyk and Catherine Corbett, has organized a phenomenal slate of cutting-edge scientific papers and posters, a stimulating array of plenary sessions and speakers, and an outstanding keynote address by Beth Kerttula (Director of the National Ocean Council). We hope that you will also take advantage of the pre-conference workshops and field trips, and will participate in events such as the Student Career Night, the Women in Science Luncheon, and the Student Mentoring Program. Always needed is help with the Student Presentation judging, which is a great service to the conference. We really hope you will also join in the fun for what should be a great get together at the Punch Bowl Social (a great place to hang out and have a good time), and the ever popular Pub Night.

The conference would not happen without a great deal of hard work by all the 53 members of the Conference Organizing committees, the CERF Business Office staff, and students and other volunteers that have stepped up to continue the great tradition of the Biennial CERF Conferences. We could not have begun to get the conference together without all these wonderful folks.

Finally, thanks to all of you who have registered for the conference, and who will by your presence and participation, make this such a fun and scientifically stimulating event. If you are not a member of CERF, please consider joining the organization at the conference to help insure the future of coastal and estuarine research.

We look forward to seeing you all here in Portland.

mechanisms that affect estuarine food webs. Her work has profound societal effects and as one letter of recommendation states “has direct implications for understanding the productivity, resilience, and management of coastal ecosystems”.

Since Autumn’s arrival at EPA, her scientific leadership, positive personality, and boundless energy have resulted in numerous senior- and co-authored publications as well as countless invited and contributed presentations. Her research continues to produce significant contributions and fundamental new knowledge on the role of nutrients and climate on estuarine function that are import-ant for resource management. Recently she has begun working with scientists in Puerto Rico to address complex nutrient loading prob-lems that have profound socioeconomic and health implications for local communities. Her curiosity, ability to work collaboratively, and productivity make an ideal choice for the 2015 Cronin Award.

Odum Award: Joy Zedler, University of WisconsinWe are pleased to award the 2015 Odum Lifetime Achievement Award to Dr. Joy Zedler. The Odum Award is named for the three outstanding ecological scientists in the Odum family: Dr. How-ard T. Odum; Dr Eugene P. Odum and Dr. William H. Odum III. The award recognizes the lifetime achievements of an outstanding scientist by honoring sustained accomplishments and important contributions to understanding of estuaries and coastal ecosystems. Dr. Zedler is the Aldo Leopold Professor of Restoration Ecology in the Botany Department and Arboretum at the University of Wiscon-sin Madison. Like the Odums, she is recognized for contributing to a broad-based understanding of coastal marine ecosystems, addressing critical management questions, serving the scientific community, and educating multiple generations of students.

One of the letters in support of Dr. Zedler’s nomination described her as an irrepressible force for better science, conservation and management of estuaries. Dr. Zedler has been instrumental in the metamorphosis of the field of marsh restoration from an art into a science. She is a consummate ecologist who sets wetland science and restoration in the broader context of ecological principals and theories. She has contributed to the fundamental understanding of wetland ecosystems and their restoration with an impressive breadth of issues she has addressed and constituents she has reached. A recent Google Scholar search found over 11,000 citations of Zedler’s nearly 260 scientific publications and an impressive h-index of 58. Her publications include classic works in wetland ecology including her pioneering research published in the paper “Canopy architecture of natural and planted cordgrass marshes: selecting habitat evaluation criteria,” in 1993 in Ecological Applications. This paper represents many years of research, and made a significant contribution to the development of the ecological criteria for managing habitat for clapper rails by tying together plant ecology, hydrology, bird population censuses, and wetland restoration techniques. Dr. Zedler’s books range from ‘Foundations of Restoration Ecology’, considered a must-read for graduate students and restoration ecologists, to a how-to ‘Handbook for Restoring Tidal Wetlands’ to a book on ‘Salt Marsh Secrets’ for middle- and high school students.

Dr. Zedler’s service to the scientific community and dedication to the use of sound science in service to society has also been extraor-dinary. Dr. Zedler was Vice President of the Estuarine Research Federation from 1987-1989 and has served on Editorial Boards of Estuaries (now Estuaries and Coasts), Restoration Ecology, Ecosys-tem Health and Sustainability, Ecological Applications, the Journal of Ecotechnology, Wetlands Ecology and Management, and Ecosys-tems. She has served on 5 National Research Council committees and the National Governing Board of the Nature Conservancy. Dr. Zedler’s advisory activities have ranged from international to local; she is currently a member of an international panel advising South Korea’s National Institute of Ecology and has served on the Wetland Advisory Board for the City of San Diego. Dr. Zedler was previously recognized by CERF as the first recipient of the William A. Niering Outstanding Educator Award in 2001. She has graduated 24 MS and PhD students in the last 15 years alone, and many more during her long and esteemed career.

Pritchard Award – Physical Oceanography Paper: Jennifer Hansen and Matthew Reidenbach, University of VirginiaThis award was established to honor Dr. Donald W. Pritchard, whose insightful research on the physical dynamics of coastal systems set the stage for much of the research in physical oceanography that is being conducted today. The Pritchard Award recognizes the authors of the best physical oceanography paper published in Estuaries and Coasts within the two-year interval between CERF conferences.

Hansen and Reidenbach (2013) detailed the influence of seagrass meadows on wave-dominated flows and sediment resuspension in South Bay, Virginia, within the Virginia Coastal Reserve. They deployed acoustic and optical instruments in vegetated and unveg-etated sites of the reserve over multiple seasonal periods, while also measuring seagrass characteristics such as shoot density and blade length. They computed wave climate, turbulent quantities, and shear stress at these sites and compared them to suspended-sediment con-centration measurements.

They found that seasonal changes in seagrass density altered the turbulence and shear stress regime, as well as sediment resuspension. The positive feedback between vegetative density, turbulence and shear stress reduction, and decreased sediment resuspension increas-es light availability for the meadow, thereby contributing to further growth. They also showed that sparse coverage in the winter did not promote sediment stabilization as compared to an unvegetated site, suggesting that there may be a tipping point where low seagrass coverage does not initiate the positive feedback loop.

The novelty of this study lies in the application of advanced hydro-dynamic techniques within an ecosystem type, with consideration of seasonal and spatial variability in the ecosystem. The authors quan-tified an intuitive process with robust measurement techniques and great clarity. Their results will be useful for restoration efforts, model development, and basic understanding of hydrodynamics and sed-iment transport mechanisms. This study provides a model for future work in estuaries and coastal regions, where quantifying fundamental physical processes is a critical component of interdisciplinary science.

William A. Niering Outstanding Educator Award: Dr. Peggy Fong, UCLADr. Peggy Fong is the recipient of the 2015 William A. Niering Outstanding Educator Award. No one can argue that Dr. Fong is an excellent and influential scholar. Dr. Fong, however, is much, much more to the many individuals that she has directly or indirectly touched at UCLA. As repeatedly mentioned by her former students and colleagues, Dr. Fong is gifted educator, mentor and role model. Undergraduates are captivated by her lessons, which occur in both the classroom and the field. Many of these students were experiencing nature and field science for the first time. As a result of her curriculum and her passion for science, undergraduate students have had the opportunity to see the world through the lens of science, secure their own funding, and publish in leading journals. The beauty of Dr. Fong’s approach is that she shows students that science is within everyone’s reach. Many of these undergraduates have gone on to receive Ph.D. degrees and become leading scientists and communicators of science. Dr. Fong was also a principal investigator on a Center for Ocean Science Education Excellence (COSEE) award so that K-12 students could also be inspired to pursue degrees in science. Outside of academia, Dr. Fong has shown her students that you can have the life that you choose, especially where family is concerned. One former student stated, “Peggy teaches that success is not just the number of publications we have, it is also achieving balance between our work and our families. I hope I can show my own son that you can integrate your family and your career without sacrificing one for the other.” Congratulations Dr. Peggy Fong!

PROGRAMMING

PLENARY SESSION ON SEA LEVEL RISE AS A THREAT TO ESTUARIES AND COASTSDate & Time: Monday 8 November | 3:30 – 5:00 pmLocation: Ballrooms 201-202Moderator: Andrea E. Copping, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Seattle, WASea level rise (SLR) is a well-accepted result of climate change, yet predictions for its timing and extent are highly uncertain at the ocean basin and local coastal scale. The ability to plan and design coastal defenses, relocation strategies for critical infrastructure, and protection of natural resources is compromised by this uncertainly, as well as by a lack of broad public and political support to carry out the necessary mitigations. This plenary will explore a range of solutions that includes engineering designs to protect coastal resources and increase resiliency; natural defenses that can protect the coast and estuaries; and practical solutions for meeting the challenges of SLR. Resilient solutions will be described in the context the pros and cons of strictly fortified solutions versus innovative alternatives such as those explored in the contests Changing Course and Rebuild by Design. Natural shoreline defenses will propose methods for restoring natural infrastructure such as wetlands, dunes, living shorelines, and open space, which can produce a host of benefits to communities in addition to flood protection, including clean water, habitat for fish and wildlife, increased opportunities for recreation and tourism, and savings for taxpayers nationwide. Political will and methods to increase coastal resilience will be examined through new and innovative mechanisms for financing, managing land ownership, integrating with other coast-al protection and restoration programs that provide specific forward thinking approaches to important issues surrounding SLR. These strategies will include: gaining the political and public support needed to achieve coastal protection and resiliency; identifying new coalitions beyond traditional conservation and science communities that are needed; and harnessing natural processes be harnessed to increase coastal resilience.

PLENARY PRESENTATIONS:Fortifying for a Resilient and Sustainable Future

Abstract: Preparing for and adapting our coastal areas to be resilient to increasing flood risk means engineers must adapt and rethink their traditional design approaches. To be resilient means we are able to prepare, withstand, recover, and adapt in the face of adverse conditions and increasing risk brought about by climate change, aging and inadequate infrastructure, and growing populations and development along our coasts. Engineers have excelled at designing infrastructure that can absorb or withstand large loading events. Simply continuing the approach that we can fortify our coasts by building flood protection will not be fiscally feasible nor socially desirable for a resilient and sustainable future. It will be important to take a multidisciplinary and creative systems approach, that engages the communities and stakeholders impacted, in developing non-traditional and multi-faceted solutions. Preparing for a resilient future means we must imagine the impossible, while we design for the inevitable.

In Search of the Unicorn: Science and Decision Making in Support of SLR

Abstract: It is increasingly clear that our scientific capabilities are under appreciated and underutilized especially with regard to highly contentious issues such as climate change and its attendant effects. Part of this is due to cultural differences in perception and commu-nication, another component is our ability to bring forth positive solutions has lagged behind our modeling capabilities, and finally there is just real world politics. Addressing these shortcomings may help advance...not just the dislog...but our actual efforts to adapt to an increasingly changing environment.

PLENARY SESSION ON MULTIPLE STRESSORS IN COASTAL ECOSYSTEMSDate & Time: Tuesday November 10 | 3:30 - 5:00 pmLocation: Ballrooms 201-202Moderator: Joseph Needoba, Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, ORFor decades coastal ecosystems have undergone environmental change as a result of synergistic effects from human activities such as indus-trialization, development, burning of fossil fuels, and agriculture. Issues such as eutrophication, climate disruption, ocean acidification, invasive species, and loss of habitat are significant concerns unto them-selves, but when occurring together can amount to “wicked” prob-lems that appear overwhelming and have no obvious solution. This session will explore the notion that the familiar scientific approaches to environmental issues must be abandoned in favor of more collabo-rative and integrative approaches to science and stewardship practices that are inclusive of broader societal perspectives. This also requires changes in communication and public engagement so that experts, decision-makers and stakeholders together define and find solutions to the multiple stressor problems we face. The scientific community can and must learn and build from success stories and communicate these successes to the public. Together we can take actions that will have meaningful consequences for the long-term sustainability and resiliency of coastal ecosystems and all of us who rely on them.

PLENARY PRESENTATIONS:Designing the Coast for the Future to Effectively Deal with

Multiple StressorsAbstract: Most of the problems we face today in estuaries and other coastal ecosystems and the stresses that cause them have been with us for decades. Today, many, perhaps most, are more intense and more extensive. With the projected increase in the rise of sea level, an additional stress will be added, a stress that will take its greatest toll on human coastal ecosystems. Instead of efforts to restore natural coastal ecosystems, we should focus our efforts on designing and creating the coast for the future, one that focuses on humans and on nature. It is a wicked problem, and wicked problems require approaches different from those we have been trained to solve. While wicked problems can’t be solved, they can, if properly posed, be managed to minimize regret. That’s our challenge. I will outline steps in designing the coast for the future.

Triaging the Coastal OceanAbstract: Coastal systems have long been ideal spots for habitation because of the rich benefits they provide. Coastal systems filter nutrients, dampen storm surges, and are essential habitat for nutritionally and economically valuable shellfish and finfish. Unfortunately, human activities alter coastal systems in numerous negative ways – threatening ecosystem function and long-term sustainability. But is it all bad news? And is it possible to assess which problems are most immediate and severe? This talk will focus on some of the most important issues coastal ecosystems have faced and will face in the near future. Using specific case studies we will highlight stories of success – where human actions brought positive change to coastal systems. The ultimate goal is to provide a working framework for a path forward that will allow us to feel hopeful about the future and motivated to take action.

Communicating Multiple Stresses: Countering Overwhelm, Engendering Hope

Abstract: Climate change and interacting environmental and social pressures are perpetually difficult to communicate, not least because they seem still distant in both time and space. Once the challenges become tangible for people or impacts actually experienced, they easily provoke a sense of overwhelm and powerlessness. This presentation will offer insights about effective communication and community engagement in the climate-coastal-ocean context, and focus particularly on ways to engender hope and active response to the multiple stresses we face.

WORKSHOPS

CERF 2015 offers a diverse and exciting line-up of workshops, and students, many of these are aimed at you! All workshops will be held on Sunday November 8, beginning as early as 9 am. Plan to arrive early to the workshops to make the most of this year’s unique offerings.

9:00 am – 5:00 pmBeginning Videography for Science Professionals(limit 20 participants)Cost: $50 (includes boxed lunch)Location: A 105Convener: Karen McKeeThis full day workshop is designed to teach participants the basics of planning, shooting, editing, and publishing an effective and profes-sional science video. Videography skills will become increasingly important for the scientist of the future to keep pace with the rapid changes in communication technology and electronic publishing. As public demand for more accessible and engaging science information increases and as competition for science jobs, research funding, and space in journals becomes more intense, those with multimedia skills such as videography will be at a distinct advantage. Through hands – on exercises, you will develop a brief video to convey information about your research, to develop outreach materials, or to meet some other purpose — with the goal of creating a useable, information product.

9:00 – 11:30 amSocial Media and ScienceCost: $25Location: B 116Lead Convener: Jeff ClementsGiven the increasing interest and expansion of social media among the scientific community, this workshop will provide researchers, scientific professionals, and students with the skills and tools to enhance their professional outreach through the use of social media. In general, this workshop will introduce various social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, blogging, etc.) and provide tips on how to utilize them to enhance outreach and networking. The workshop will also explore how to optimize the use of social media for the research needs and goals of both early-career (students and recent graduates) and well-established scientists. Examples of how scientists are currently using social media will also be explored along with “dos and don’ts” of using social media for science.

1:30 pm – 3:30 pmDemystifying the Peer-Review Process: A Guide for ReviewersCost: $25Location: B 110-112Lead Convener: Janet NestlerodeThe peer-review is an integral part of our scientific research process. Journals rely on objective reviews by knowledgeable researchers to ensure the quality of the papers that are published. Through presentations by experienced peer reviewers and journal editors including Estuaries and Coasts, Biogeochemistry, and Limnology

and Oceanography, this workshop will provide an overview of the elements of an effective peer review to help participants improve their own peer-reviewing experience and skills.

Topics to be covered will include: the peer review process and the critical role the reviewer plays, ethical responsibilities of reviewers, and expectations of reviewers from editorial boards. Conflict of interest, associate editor-reviewer interactions, scope of reviewer commentary provided to guide the revision of the paper, and the shared responsibility for contributing to peer review will also be discussed. Emphasis will be placed on how to improve the peer review process, what makes a review useful for an editor, and what common practices complicate the editorial process.

9:00 am – 12:00 pmThe Academic Job Search: From A to ZCost: $15 Location: C 120-122Lead Convener: Elizabeth CanuelThe goal of this workshop is to provide participants with as “behind the scenes” look at the job search process so that early career scientists can understand and negotiate the process more successfully. The workshop will include introductions followed by four parts: (1) a description of the institutional timeline for job searches, (2) an explanation of what is expected of job candidates in different types of academic institutions, (3) interactive sessions on key aspects of the job search process, including preparing competitive application materials and a strong “job seminar” or “job talk”, and (4) a discussion about preparing for interviews and interview questions. Each of the four parts will include a question and answer period where participants can get feedback from the workshop leaders. The workshop may also include the opportunity to review teaching and research statements from successful job searches.

10:30 am – 12:00 pmTutorial on Scientific Writing and PublishingCost: $25Location: B 110-112Lead Convener: James CloernThis popular 90-minute workshop, given at three previous CERF con-ferences by a veteran journal editor, is geared for students and others with little or no experience writing and publishing scientific articles. The first half will focus on attributes of well-written scientific articles.

Students are expected to read in advance the following paper for discus sion: G.W. Kling et al. 1987. The 1986 Lake Nyos Gas Disas-ter in Cameroon, West Africa. SCIENCE, 236(4798):169-175. The second half will focus on diverse aspects of publication, e.g.: how to determine authorship, choose a journal, write a cover letter, communi-cate with editors, respond to reviewer comments, deal with rejection (it happens!).

9:00 am – 2:30 pmQuality Control and Management of Continuous, High-Frequency, Biogeochemical Sensors (limit 30 participants)Cost: $50 – Includes transportation and boxed lunch Location: A 107-109Lead Conveners: Yoana Voynova, Corey Koch, and Douglas WilsonThere is increasing availability and use of continuous, high-frequency, and automated instruments for monitoring and studying biogeochem-ical cycles in estuarine, coastal, and marine settings. This workshop, for current and future users of this type of instrumentation, will focus on instrumental operations, operating procedures, and will include site-specific procedures developed to improve data reliability, quality and utility in contrasting settings. The goal is to generate community discussions and develop collaborations between the user community and instrument developers to address quality assessment questions that have been encountered in the community. Another goal is to transfer procedures and best practices developed by the current user communi-ty to existing and future users in order to standardize practices across various ecosystems and applications.

1:30 pm – 3:00 pmBusiness Basics for ScientistsCost: $25 Location: C 120-122Lead Convener: Anne ThessenAccording to the Department of Education, more than 40% of teaching staff at universities are part-time faculty without tenure or adjunct faculty. This has left an entire generation of talented scientists with poor academic employment prospects. This workshop aims to provide students and scientists information about 1) What they can do now to prepare for a career in the private sector, 2) How to start their own science-based company, and 3) The many misconceptions about industry. This workshop will focus on resources and best practices for transitioning from academia to industry including, but not limited to 1) Interview and resume skills, 2) Differences and similarities between academia and industry, 3) Discovering your value proposition, 4) Navigating SBIR and STTR, and 5) Finding resources for starting your own company.

1:30 pm – 5:00 pmRemotely Mapping Areal and Depth Distributions of Estuarine/Near-Coastal SAVCost: $25Location: B 116Lead Convener: David YoungThis workshop will address research and measurement techniques for investigating challenges of Sea Level Rise (SLR) to Rooted Submerged Aquatic Vegetation habitats (SAV) in estuarine and near-coast-al ecosystems. Targeted subjects for discussion include: (1) Novel techniques for remotely delineating the areal distribution of native and non-indigenous seagrasses. (2) Improved techniques for assessing the accuracy of remotely sensed data. (3) Methods for quantifying changes in SAV distribution and condition (4) GIS techniques to assess bathymetric distribution of existing SAV habitats. (5) Models incorporating environmental variables that influence SAV distribu-tions. (6) Nearshore landscape characteristics that permit or prohibit SAV migration with SLR.

FIELD TRIPS

Escape the traditional conference atmosphere and explore the Portland area by joining one of the field trips offered at CERF 2015. All field trips will be held on Sunday 8 November, and include lunch and transportation.

Bonneville Dam and Bonneville Fish Hatchery TourDuration: 9:00 am – 5:00 pmCost: $35Take a ride through the majestic Columbia River Gorge to visit the impressive Bonneville Dam and the Bonneville Fish Hatchery. Bonneville Dam, completed in 1938, is the first of the major hydroelectric power systems on the river, and significant effort has been expended over the years to alleviate passage barrier effects on anadromous fishes.

Box lunch and transportation will be provided. Please bring rain gear, warm clothing, and comfortable shoes.

Columbia River Gorge RestorationDuration: 9:00 am – 5:00 pmCost: $35The Lower Columbia River is one of 28 estuaries within EPA’s National Estuary Program. The upstream section of the lower Columbia is included within the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, and designated part of the Ice Age Floods National Geologic Trail, managed through the National Park Service.

Box lunch and transportation will be provided. Please bring rain gear, warm clothing and hiking boots.

Portland Brewery Bicycle TourDuration: 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm, 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm, 3:00 pm – 5:00 pmCost: $20Portland is known for both its bike and beer cultures, and now you can experience both with a “BrewCycle” tour! You pedal while a designated driver steers and guides you through the streets to visit several iconic Portland brewpubs. Three pubs are on the menu over a two hour period. It can be a bit of a workout, but that only makes the beer at the next spot more rewarding! Bring your tunes to plug into the onboard stereo system and get the party moving!

Willamette Valley Winery TourDuration: 10:00 am – 5:00 pmCost: $110 (not including tasting fees)Enjoy the scenic Willamette Valley on an exclusive winery tour designed specifically for CERF! Join Backroads Wine Tours and Dr. Scott Burns, Professor Emeritus of Geology at Portland State University, for an educational and unforgettable tour of this world-renowned wine region.

The tour includes round-trip travel from the Convention Center, expert tour guides, and a gourmet lunch.

Scappoose Bay Kayak TourDuration: 10:00am – 4:30 pmCost: $75Explore the beautiful sloughs and wetlands of the Scappoose Bay lowlands on an expert guided kayak tour. This area, just 30 minutes from Portland, is located in the broad floodplain at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers and supports an extensive network of tidal freshwater habitats. Because the area is an import-ant stopover on the Pacific Flyway, November is an excellent time to view the many populations of migratory waterfowl, shorebirds, and neotropical songbirds. The area is also home to herons, osprey, eagles, and other resident birds.

This trip is designed for kayakers from beginner to expert levels and will include round-trip travel from the Convention Center, a catered lunch, experienced guide, and all kayak equipment. Suggested items to bring include raingear, warm layers, camera, and binoculars.

Bidding Opens: Sunday 8 November | 8:00 pmBidding Closes: Wednesday 11 November | 12:00 pmPayment Due By: Thursday at 3:30 pmLocation: Expo HallFollow us on twitter: #cerfauction

OVERVIEW:This year there are two Exciting options at the Silent Auction! We have added the opportunity to win Door Prizes. The traditional silent auction offerings are very grand this year! Participants will use bid sheets to attempt to win the auction item that they desire. Don’t forget to keep checking back, because you never know who may sneak in and try to outbid you.

New… Door Prizes! Door prize tickets are available for purchase at the registration desk and you enter to win by placing your ticket in the tub adjacent to the item you are interested in winning. We’ll be drawing a few winners each day (items will be noted).

We will accept cash, check, or credit card donations. Winners are responsible for the collection and transport of their items. Remember that every bid you make and ticket you purchase will increase the amount of money going to support CERF students

HOW IT WORKS:Silent AuctionItems available for the silent auction will have an associated bid sheet. The head of the bid sheet will list the item and identify the minimum starting bid (if pertinent) and bid increment amounts. To

bid, write your name, contact information (email and/or cell) and bid amount in the appropriate columns. Check back often to see if you’ve been outbid and raise the stakes.

At noon on Wednesday, November 11, the auction will close and the person who bid the highest amount will be declared the winner. If you’ve won, we will notify you via the provided contact information and you will have until 3:30 pm on Thursday, November 12 to pick up and pay for the item. If you’ve won, collect the bid sheet and item (if available) from the auction area and proceed to the registration desk to make your donation. Some items like gift cards and scientific equipment may be waiting for you at registration, but the bid sheets will stay at the auction table. Auction assistants will be available to help facilitate this process. Please pick up, and pay for, your items by 1:00 pm on Thursday and if you fail to do so, the item will be awarded to the next highest bidder.

Door PrizesDoor prizes will be displayed at the auction table and won through a random drawing. Of course, like the lottery, you have to play to win! And to play, you have to purchase tickets ($2 per ticket or 3 tickets for $5) from the registration desk or, when available, from an auction assistant near the display tables in the poster hall. Please write your name and contact information (email and/or cell) on the ticket before you drop it in the tub associated with the door prize you hope to win. We’ll be drawing a few door prize winners at the end of the Monday and Tuesday Plenary Sessions although the bulk of the items will be drawn on Wednesday at noon. The date and time of the drawing will be noted on the tubs and you don’t have to be present to win. We will track you down.
