SABCS and SSTAC are pleased to announce the “Holistic Protection of Aquatic Ecosystems—Modern Sediment Quality Assessment” session at the Canadian Ecotoxicity Workshop (CEW) 2025.
The session will feature keynote speaker Dr. Peter Ross, two SSTAC presentations on risk based derivation methods and AI assisted evidence reviews, plus interactive workshops soliciting feedback on tiered lines of evidence approaches.
Abstracts are welcome on bioavailability modelling, species sensitivity distributions, community level indicators, and cumulative effects assessment; the portal closes June 13, 2025.
Interested practitioners and researchers are invited to complete an online survey running June 1 to July 31, 2025, and apply to volunteer for the SSTAC Technical Working Group.
Help advance a robust scientific framework that aligns with the proposed holistic protection direction and informs next generation CSR sediment standards.
