The Oregon Marine Renewable Energy Environmental Science Conference was held 28-29 November 2012, at Oregon State University (OSU) in Corvallis, Oregon. The conference brought together experts to outline research and monitoring needs to assess environmental impacts of these technologies.
New research, technology development, and other activities in the intervening five years create a need to assess the current research inventory and identify information gaps and priorities for future research associated with marine renewable energy. The primary goal of the conference was to evaluate environmental research needs associated with wave and offshore wind energy development in the Pacific Northwest. Download the entire document here.
