North Carolina's coastal resources extend beyond the sand and surf to an extensive estuarine system that serves as nursery grounds for com- mercially important fish and shellfish. The system is com- plicated, and many people do not un- derstand it. That's why scientists and resource managers offered a public symposium on the Pamlico River Es- tuary March 19 in Washington, The three-part program offered dis- cussions on the river's fisheries, with Terry Sholar, a marine biologist at the Division of Marine Fisheries; the estuarine ecosystem and how it func- tions, by UNC Sea Grant Director Copeland; and how people con- cerned about the estuary can get in- volved in the decision-making process, with John Phillips, executive director of the Pamlico-Tar River The symposium was sponsored by UNC Sea Grant, the Division of Marine Fisheries and the Pamlico-Tar River Foundation. For more informa- tion about the foundation, call Phillips at 919/975-3680. North Carolina Gov. James G. Martin recently appointed three UNC Sea Grant scientists to the state Marine Fisheries Commission. Sea Grant Director Copeland; Charles Peterson, marine biology professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; and Michael Orbach, an anthropologist at East Carolina Uni- versity, were among 14 selected to serve on the commission. The commis- sion, which is made up of commercial and recreational fishermen, researchers and processors, is responsible for for- mulating fisheries policy. Joyce Ta
