ESA is pleased to sponsor and present at the 2025 American Shore & Beach Preservation Association (ASBPA’s) National Coastal Conference in Long Beach, California from October 7 – 10. This year’s conference will focus on coastal projects on the leading edge which are bridging science, policy and community. ESA’s coastal engineers and scientists will share ESA’s ongoing work in developing coastal adaptation programs, designing nature-based approaches to shoreline resilience, quantifying carbon sequestration, and modeling storm impacts.
ESA’s team of coastal engineers, hydrologists, and environmental scientists will be attending the conference and we look forward to connecting with you.
