    Society for Conservation GIS 17th Annual SCGIS International Conference July 10–12, 2014 Pacific Grove, California Shifting Lines A Message from the Conference Committee The world is transforming around us. As Earth’s climate changes, isolines of physical and human geography shift, sometimes unpredictably. Glaciers retreat, reservoirs evaporate, habitats shrink, and climate refugees seek new places to live. Learning to mitigate such harmful change and to adapt to it, we use the best available tools and technology to gather, analyze, report and visualize data relevant to our individual professions, pursuits and interests. Our hard work can effect profound change. We and our allies remove dams, restoring long dormant salmon runs. We breach dikes, bringing life back to previously stagnant estuaries. We restore habitats, increasing biodiversity. We create wilderness and ocean sanctuaries, providing sorely needed refuge. And we develop new ways of providing clean water and distributing aid, creating better living conditions for thousands of people in need. Coming from across scientific disciplines, our Society convenes each year to share information and knowledge in order to gain collective insight and wisdom. Creating professional connections and making deep personal relationships, we foster all of these positive changes—and we have a great time doing it. Thanks for joining us as we discuss, debate, bemoan and celebrate these shifting lines. Welcome to the 17th annual conference of the Society for Conservation GIS! 2014 SCGIS Conference Committee
