These waters harbor the lion&#8217;s share of earth&#8217;s biological diversity, and right next door is where most of the world&#8217;s people live, heavily dependent upon ocean resources.  The speakers will present and discuss ecological insights gained over the last five years from the Marine Management Area Science Program, a network of monitoring experiments spread across Brazil, Belize, Panama, Fiji, Galapagos, and the remote atolls of the Central Pacific and explore how these monitoring efforts can help in coastal conservation and development efforts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prof.Les Kaufman<\/strong> is\u00a0Professor of Biology at Boston University and Senior Investigator for Marine Management Area Science at Conservation International.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr Stuart Sandin <\/strong>is Assistant Researcher of Marine Ecology at the Scripps Institution of  Oceanography.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr Stuart Banks <\/strong>is an Oceanographer with the Charles Darwin Research Station at the Galapagos.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Seminar will be held at Pardee House (67 Bay State Road, Boston) on Wednesday, December 9, 2009.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Pardee Seminar Series focuses on a variety of issues and invites experts from different disciplines to discuss the long-range challenges and trends in that particular issue.
