This National Park Service grant has been awarded to Rutgers University for critical recovery efforts following Superstorm Sandy. This designated funding supports site-specific collaboration aimed at coastal adaptation and revegetation initiatives within affected parks, specifically the Staten Island Unit, Gateway National Recreation Area. Rutgers University will generate essential site monitoring data sets and conduct comprehensive reviews of project documents, focusing on geomorphological considerations. Key deliverables include producing short reports on site conditions and providing recommendations for both coastal adaptation and revegetation, ensuring alignment with forthcoming General Management Plans and Natural and Cultural Resource Plans. All project data and metadata will be submitted to the NPS to aid future resource management.
