The NMFS-Sea Grant department is offering this grant to PhD students interested in careers related to marine ecosystem and population dynamics, focusing on modeling and managing living marine resources. This grant is for the purpose of fostering expertise in developing and implementing quantitative methods for assessing marine ecosystems, evaluating the status of fish, invertebrate, and other targeted species stocks, and monitoring marine mammals, seabirds, and protected species. Fellows will work on thesis problems relevant to NMFS, receiving guidance from NMFS mentors at participating Science Centers or Laboratories. The program aligns with NOAA’s mission goal to “Protect, Restore and Manage the Use of Coastal and Ocean Resources Through Ecosystem-Based Management”, contributing to vital research in marine science.
