14th Young Coastal Scientists and Engineers Conference

 

WISE CDT students Paul Bayle, Gwyn Hennessey, Benjamin Beylard and Richard Rees attended the 14^th Young Coastal Scientists and Engineers Conference which took place at the University of Hull, from the 19^th to the 21^st of March 2018. This event gathers early career PhD students, academics and professionals from around UK and Europe and is a great opportunity to keep up-to-date with current research projects.

 

Presentations and posters along with keynote lectures covered a large range of topics including salt marshes, coastal adaptation, ecology, coastal socio-sciences, laboratory based studies, numerical and computational modelling. The conference also provided a range of opportunities to network with both developing and established researchers. The first day provided social interactions during a field trip to Spurn Point National Nature Reserve, in the mouth of the Humber estuary.
