Dr. Christopher Neill, Senior Scientist at the Woodwell Climate Research Center, will speak at the next meeting of the Woods Hole Woman’s Club. Dr. Neill studies ecosystems around the globe, always with a local focus. He is interested broadly in how changes in land use affect ecosystem function, and in our ability to restore impaired systems. His work on the impacts of restoring cranberry bogs to natural habitat involves state and federal agencies, the Town of Falmouth, and Coonamessett River Trust.
The Club will meet at 11:30 am on Tuesday, April 11, at The Church of the Messiah Parish and Community Center, 16 Church Street in Woods Hole. Light refreshments will be served and those attending may bring a brown bag lunch if they wish. This meeting is open to the public as space allows.
The Woods Hole Woman’s Club brings members together to provide enrichment and mutual helpfulness for the betterment of Woods Hole and the surrounding communities.
