Financial Assistance for National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science

 

NCCOS provides research, scientific information and tools to help balance the Nations ecological, social and economic goals. Our partnerships with local and national coastal managers are essential in providing science and services to benefit communities and the Nation. The research and tools we provide are central to addressing coastal issues raised in legislation and NOAAs priorities. We seek to help coastal communities protect themselves from harmful algae, contamination and the implications of changing climate. We also provide the research necessary for communities to develop effective and sustainable management of their resources. Through competitive research funding, NCCOS also engages the nations best talent to develop cutting-edge science for coastal management applications. NCCOSs four major research priorities are: climate impacts, coastal ecosystem management, coastal pollution, and harmful algal blooms.
