This grant, offered by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), is for the University of Alaska to conduct studies that provide public benefit and inform resource management. It aims to stimulate scientific problem-solving, protect natural resources crucial for subsistence lifestyles, and promote ocean science education. The research will inform local, state, and federal decision-makers on issues related to offshore oil, gas, renewable energy, and marine minerals. Specific research topics selected for full proposals include crude oil infiltration in sea ice, developing a low-cost satellite-tracked ice drifter, utilizing unmanned aircraft for intertidal surveys, measuring sea levels along Alaskan coasts, and analyzing crude oil biodegradation in beaches. This grant ultimately supports research to enhance understanding and stewardship of Alaska’s marine environment.

| Description: | This Program Announcement provides the vehicle for the University of Alaska to submit proposals with matching funds to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) for consideration for funding in Fiscal Year 2014. This announcement provides general information on suitable topics for research. BOEM seeks studies from the University of Alaska that will provide public benefit in several ways. It will stimulate the application of science to problem solving and protection of natural resources. It will promote educational opportunities in the ocean sciences. It will lead to protection of natural resources of value to subsistence lifestyles. The research will inform the public and resource managers at the local, state and federal levels who make decisions about issues relating to offshore oil, gas, renewable energy and other marine minerals. Following the submission of letters of intent (LOI) from the University of Alaska, the BOEM, in discussion with representatives from the State of Alaska, have selected the following LOI topics for development of full proposals. 1. Crude oil infiltration and movement in first-year sea ice: Impacts on ice-associated biota and physical constraints2. Development and testing of a low-cost satellite-tracked ice drifter for Arctic Alaska3. Testing the use of unmanned aircraft systems for intertidal surveys ¿ proof of concept4. Sea level measurements along the Alaskan Chukchi and Beaufort coasts5. Biodegradation and transport of crude oil in sand and gravel beaches |
