The Department of Interior is offering this grant to support critical field and laboratory studies within the Nauset Marsh Estuary on Cape Cod National Seashore. This grant is specifically for investigating toxic red tides and groundwater nutrient fluxes, with the purpose of examining the population dynamics of harmful algal blooms (HABs). Researchers will relate hydrodynamics and groundwater nutrient movements to HAB duration and intensity, using an existing physical-biological numerical model. Awarded as a sole source agreement to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, this five-year Cooperative Agreement (H2380105504) outlines work through task assignments, with an initial task valued at $243,000. This significant initiative aims to enhance understanding of coastal ecosystem health and inform management strategies for sensitive estuarine environments.
