The Floodplain Science Network is a group of scientists, researchers, managers, policy experts, and conservation practitioners that have a common interest in learning from one another in regards to floodplain science, policy, restoration and conservation approaches. This presentation will provide an overview of how the Floodplain Science Network was formed, our accomplishments thus far, and our path forward.

Prairie Reconstruction Initiative (PRI) is a collaboration of more than 30 conservation organizations, including many that are part of the Eastern Tallgrass Prairie and Big Rivers LCC, working to increase success in reconstructing prairies. During this webinar we will provide an overview of our current efforts, including a reconstruction database, monitoring protocols, and information sharing within the community of practice, and we will address ways that practitioners can become involved.
