The NOAA RESTORE Science Program’s funding competition for planning actionable science is now open. This competition will provide natural resource managers, researchers, and other stakeholders with funding to plan a research project that informs a specific management decision impacting natural resources in the Gulf of Mexico. The Science Program is making approximately $2.5 million available … Continue reading
The NOAA RESTORE Science Program has awarded $3.6M to a project team that will characterize seasonal, annual, and decadal trends in marine mammal species in the Gulf of Mexico. They will also assess the role of ocean conditions and human activities in driving these trends. This project is coordinated with the Reduce Impacts of Anthropogenic … Continue reading
The NOAA RESTORE Science Program has completed its third funding competition and awarded approximately $15.6M to four teams of researchers and resource managers to support work on trends in living coastal and marine resources and the processes driving them in the Gulf of Mexico region. These projects will increase our understanding of how shellfish, fish, … Continue reading
In 2016, dockside revenue for blue crabs caught in the Gulf of Mexico was in excess of 65 million dollars. Blue crabs are highly dependent on seagrass (Thalassia testudinum) habitat for their reproduction and growth. Yet the impact of hurricanes on seagrass health, and therefore blue crab economics, is unknown. In response to this need, … Continue reading
The NOAA RESTORE Science Program is continuing to review full applications submitted to our competition on long-term trends in living coastal and marine resources and the processes that drive them. While the partial government shutdown earlier this year delayed our merit review of applications, we still anticipate being able to inform applicants of the results … Continue reading
Full applications to the NOAA RESTORE Science Program’s competition on long-term trends in living coastal and marine resources and the processes that drive them are due by November 14, 2018. If you have any questions about our response to your pre-proposal or have questions as you develop your full application, please contact me (julien.lartigue@noaa.gov, 240-429-5966) … Continue reading
Given the impact of Hurricane Michael on the Gulf coast, the Science Program has extended the deadline for full applications to its current competition until November 14, 2018. This 16 day extension will allow institutions in areas affected by the storm to appropriately focus on near-term recovery in the days ahead. Our thoughts are with … Continue reading
Full applications to the NOAA RESTORE Science Program’s competition on long-term trends in living coastal and marine resources and the processes that drive them are due by October 29, 2018, which is in about four weeks November 14, 2018 due to the extension for Hurricane Michael. If you have any questions about our response to … Continue reading
