 d by Dr. Tom Miller\n\n\n\nCBL has been conducting environmental science f
 or more than 90​ year​s. It was founded in large part to understand declin
 es in crabs and oysters\, but these problems are still challenges today. S
 ince the 1970s and 1980s\, we have known that there are too many nutrients
  in the Chesapeake\, but we have still to control these problems. Is the f
 act that we are still debating these issues a sign of the failure of the e
 nvironmental science that was conducted\, the way in which science informs
  policy\, the policy makers or something else? Using some local examples\,
  Dr. Miller will discuss how the environmental sciences differ from the ph
 ysical sciences and how that changes the nature of scientific advice. Dr. 
 Miller will also discuss\, based on personal experience\, how we can impro
 ve how we teach\, how we conduct\, and how we can communicate environmenta
 l science to increase the likelihood that we make progress.\n\nCBL’s Berni

 in us at the oldest state-supported marine lab on the East Coast to learn 
 about innovative research being pioneered by CBL scientists.  Our faculty 
 and graduate students are developing new approaches to solving the environ
 mental management problems facing Calvert County\, our nation\, and the wo
 rld. Each talk will be presented by an UMCES scientist and will inform the
  public about a featured research effort.\n\n      \n\n        \n\n
