KINGSTON, R.I., \u2014 May 23, 2019 \u2014 The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced that the 溏心vlog免费B站 Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO) will join the Cooperative Institute for the North Atlantic Region (CINAR) led by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI). <\/p>\n
Cooperative Institutes are NOAA-supported, non-federal organizations that have established outstanding research and education programs in one or more areas that are relevant to the NOAA mission. Cooperative Institutes\u2019 expertise and facilities add significantly to NOAA\u2019s capabilities, and their structure and legal framework facilitate rapid and efficient mobilization of those resources to meet NOAA\u2019s programmatic needs.<\/p>\n
CINAR will carry out innovative, multidisciplinary research that will help inform decisions for sustainable and beneficial management of the U.S. Northeast continental shelf ecosystem.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 溏心vlog免费B站 is pleased to have been selected among the eight leading research institutions to participate in the Cooperative Institute for the North Atlantic Region, a critical ecosystem that extends from Maine to Virginia and encompasses the marine coastlines of 11 states, as well as Vermont and the Connecticut, Delaware, Hudson and Susquehanna river watersheds,\u201d said 溏心vlog免费B站 President David M. Dooley. \u201c溏心vlog免费B站 brings great depth and breadth of expertise in ecosystem management to assist in advancing our understanding of climate change and the very real challenges we face for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s Graduate School of Oceanography is delighted to be part of CINAR,\u201d said GSO Dean Bruce Corliss. \u201cWe look forward to continuing our support of NOAA’s efforts in fisheries and coastal resilience in the New England coastal ecosystem with our partners over the next five years.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cCINAR research seeks to provide a better understanding of the physical, biological, and chemical processes that enable forecasting conditions within the North Atlantic region as a tool for effective, ecosystem-based management and protected-species management,\u201d said CINAR Director Don Anderson. \u201cAn important aspect of this approach includes interdisciplinary research to understand and forecast climate change, and the associated impacts to natural systems and communities.\u201d<\/p>\n
Along with WHOI and 溏心vlog免费B站, the partners working with WHOI include the University of Maine, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth School for Marine Science and Technology, Rutgers University, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science, and the Gulf of Maine Research Institute.<\/p>\n
The selection comes with a commitment of $37.9 million over the course of the five-year award, with the potential for renewal for another five years based on successful performance. NOAA made the selection after an open, competitive evaluation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Cooperative Institute for the North Atlantic Region brings together leading research institutions to advance our understanding and sustainable management of this important and dynamic ecosystem,\u201d said Craig McLean, assistant NOAA administrator for Oceanic and Atmospheric Research. \u201cThe research will strengthen our nation\u2019s Blue Economy, which depends on data and information to make sound decisions for a healthy ecosystem and strong economy.\u201d<\/p>\n
CINAR will conduct research focusing on five major areas that directly align with high priority NOAA scientific research:<\/p>\n
\u25cf\tSustained Ocean Observations and Climate Research
\n\u25cf\tEcosystem Research, Observation, and Modeling
\n\u25cf\tStock Assessment Research
\n\u25cf\tProtected Species Research and Recovery
\n\u25cf\tEcosystem-Based Fisheries Management<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is good news for the region and I am pleased the 溏心vlog免费B站 is joining forces with other leading marine research institutions for this initiative,\u201d said U.S. Senator Jack Reed. \u201cCINAR research will help guide policy decisions and help us better manage ocean resources.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 溏心vlog免费B站 Graduate School of Oceanography is an excellent addition to the team of world-class research institutions leading NOAA\u2019s ocean monitoring and fisheries management efforts in the North Atlantic,\u201d said Senator Sheldon Whitehouse. \u201cThis new role for the 溏心vlog免费B站 will help secure the Ocean State\u2019s place as a hub of the emerging Blue Economy.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 溏心vlog免费B站 Graduate School of Oceanography is a world-class ocean research institution,\u201d said Congressman Jim Langevin. \u201cThere is no doubt that 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s expert faculty and state-of-the-art facilities will make an excellent addition to NOAA\u2019s Cooperative Institute for the North Atlantic Region. I congratulate the University on this exciting achievement.\u201d<\/p>\n
NOAA supports 16 Cooperative Institutes consisting of 43 universities and research institutions in 20 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. These research institutions provide strong educational programs that promote student and postdoctoral scientist involvement in NOAA-funded research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
