时间：2007年6月10-15日
地点：美国加州萨克拉门托

主办：湿地科学家学会（SWS）

会议旨在集中各领域的湿地科学家，对湿地科学领域最近的新发现进行探讨，学习新的方法技术，进行世界范围内的湿地和水资源政策交流，以发现西部湿地的独特属性。

会议主题为在世界范围对干净水源的需求下，阐述湿地科学，并且落实大会影响，注重湿地对废水的处理，地表水的转换功能，为生物提供栖息环境。

我们希望这次会议能够把生态学家、生物学家和相关的进行湿地研究、环保机构、湿地规范的管理者聚集到一起，共同研究湿地科学。

The conference theme was selected to represent the broad fields of wetland science and to focus on the worldwide demand for clean water and the role that wetlands can play in meeting that need. This is particularly important in arid climates like California, Arizona, Nevada, and the Pacific Islands where water demands often result in the diversion of water from natural areas affecting not only the functioning of wetlands, but also the wildlife associated with these areas. At the same time, wetlands are being designed to assist in recharging groundwater basins, treating wastewater and storm water, and purifying drinking water. We hope that this theme will bring together hydrologists, biologists, and managers who are dealing with these problems. Local programs such as the Cal Fed projects, the South Bay Restoration Project, the Napa-Sonoma marsh restoration, the Salton Sea restoration project, and the many stream and wetland restoration projects around Lake Tahoe are examples that can serve as symposium topics for the conference.

Proposed Contributed Oral Sessions may include:

1. Wetland Ecology and Management

2. Seasonal wetlands/vernal pools

3. Coastal/Estuary and tidal wetlands
