The mission of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration RESTORE Science Program is to carry out research, observation, and monitoring to support the long-term sustainability of the ecosystem, fish stocks, fish habitat, and the recreational, commercial, and charter-fishing industry in the Gulf of Mexico. Learn more about our long-term priorities.

Join us on March 20 for the first seminar in our new series on Planning for Actionable Science in the Gulf of Mexico.

In 2023, 10 projects were funded by the NOAA RESTORE Science Progam’s Actionable Science competition to conduct previously planned research in the Gulf of Mexico. Though each project conducted a collaborative planning process prior to receiving this funding, that process varied greatly from team to team. This seminar series will highlight the variety of approaches to planning applied research that were taken by each team. First up! We will be joined by Dr. Nicole Michel and Dr. Simon Brandl on March 20 at 2 pm ET.
