A National Conference in Commeration of the 50th Anniversary

The USDA Agricultural Research Service National Sedimentation Laboratory was established in Oxford, Mississippi, in 1958. Initially, the work of the lab was focused on advancing the principles of sediment transport and deposition, but the mission has continuously expanded to include a wide range of research dealing with the impacts of agriculture on soil and water. Join us for this landmark symposium in which we will assess the state of science and the National Sedimentation Laboratory's contributions. The meeting will enable participants to chart a bold and effective course for future work in the field.
