ECSA is an academic organization with a world wide membership, which promotes research and study of all aspects of estuarine and coastal regions. The Association was originally founded to promote production and dissemination of scientific knowledge and understanding of estuaries and coastal waters, in order to encourage resource management for the public benefit. The Association holds local meetings, where work relevant to one specific estuary or coastal area is presented, as well as annual international symposia. The ECSA Bulletin (which contains information on meetings, reviews and news) is distributed to all members, free of charge, three times a year. A small grants scheme also supports estuarine research and helps ECSA student members making presentations at the Associations meetings and workshops.
