The Power of Partnerships with Private Lands Riparian Research, Restoration, Enhancement and Management

Riparian restoration, enhancement and management with attendant scientific research continues to expand riparian habitat on diverse private working landscapes of California.  This Symposium will provide an overview of long-term and recent riparian projects on both farm and ranch lands.  We will present multiple perspectives from partners and collaborator who work directly to accomplish substantive riparian restoration and enhancements with attendant management.

The opening presentations of the workshop will feature landowner perspectives and experience as they collaborated with an array of partners to plan, design, implement and in some cases extensively monitor their riparian projects.  The afternoon session will highlight additional diverse partnerships that enable riparian projects on working lands.  Each presentation will feature two presenters from each project.
