- Minutes of the sand meeting during the USEPA beach conference 2016Publication . Brandão, João; Whitman, Richard; Solo-Gabriele, Helena MIntroduction to the document: Before the US EPA Recreational Beaches Conference of April 2016 in New Orleans there was a series of email exchanges in beachnet; comparing the sand/microbe hydrodynamics of difference regions of the world and their influence on fecal indicator bacteria levels. As a follow-up of the mail exchange, a live meeting took place during the conference, divided in an introductory meeting (13th April) and a general discussion meeting (14th April). The Minutes of these meetings were joined together this document. Its first section corresponds to the general discussion meeting and the second to the introductory meeting. Abstract: The goal of the meeting was to draw upon researcher experiences from all regions around the world to develop a consensus conceptual model that would explain the impacts of sand dynamics on FIB levels in both sand and water. With this consensus model, statements could be made about the impacts of climate change on microbe levels at the water/sand interface. The meeting was structured with three presentations followed by a focus on developing two consensus statements: one focused on the influence of sand dynamics on FIB levels and another focused on climate change impacts. The three presentations at the beginning of the meeting were given by Kevan Yamahara, Alan Piggot and Laura Vogel. Consensus Statement #1: Hydrometerological trends impact sand dynamics. Consensus Statement #2: The geomorphological and hydrometerological conditions affect FIB dynamics in sands.
