Discover the natural forces that created the Chesapeake Bay, and how these forces will continue to modify this region. Hear from local stakeholders as they describe their efforts to better understand the current health of our watershed and efforts underway to help protect and preserve it. Discover how you can help with these efforts as we look to the future of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed region. Learn how scientific models help us to project anticipated changes for the next century and how decision-makers are using this information to mitigate and adapt to our changing climate and increasing population.
