About
The Atlantic Salmon Ecosystems Forum (ASEF) began in 2002 as the biennial “Maine Atlantic Salmon Technical Advisory Committee Research Forum.” In recent years, the focus of the meeting has expanded to include the full suite of native diadromous (sea-run) species in line with a multi-species approach to Atlantic Salmon recovery as our understanding of ecosystem processes and ecosystem services has progressed.
While our focus remains on Atlantic Salmon recovery, we hope to attract a diverse audience interested in engaging in meaningful discussions pertaining to the past, present, and future of diadromous species science, management, conservation, and restoration.
