AEG Sea-Level Rise Conference – Norfolk, VA May 5–7, 2021 While the media are focused on the COVID-19 pandemic, many scientists and engineers continue to follow research on other long-term issues, both nationally and internationally. AEG members are aware of changes that are coming as a result of climate change and the subsequent rise in sea level, which will have worldwide effects. Many researchers expect the eastern coastline of the United States will be affected dramatically. Because climate change and rising sea levels are of interest to professionals in a wide variety of disciplines, we expect to involve other organizations in the planning and execution of this conference. We have received interest from the US Army Corps of Engineers, the American Planning Association, and the American Meteorological Society. Do you have ideas for talks you would like to see, or would you like to help plan this meeting? We welcome your input. Please send your suggestions/thoughts to Rick Kolb, Southeast Regional Director, (rick.kolb1@gmail.com), Ryan Fandray, Mid-Atlantic Regional Director, (r.fandray@gaiconsultants.com), and Curt Schmidt Northeast Regional Director, (schmidtcas.aeg@gmail.com).
