Symposium Highlights!
- Dr. Jack Wittman of INTERA will give a keynote presentation of the 10-year update of the Indiana Chamber of Commerce Water Policy and Planning report.
- Professor Eliza Brown (DePauw University), a composer, will introduce their significant piece of music based on field recordings taken along Big Walnut Creek (Putnam County, Indiana), which will be premiered at DePauw University next May.
- A lively poster session over the lunch hour will present research findings from over a dozen scientists (many students), and will include an audio station for those interested in experiencing how Professor Brown incorporated the water cycle into The Listening Year at Big Walnut Creek.
This year, our awards presentation will recognize key contributions from Scott Morlock (U.S. Geological Survey) and Harold Templin (Indiana Department of Environmental Management), who recently passed and are greatly missed by their colleagues and friends.
