This Department of the Interior grant, a non-competitive Task Agreement, is for the purpose of establishing a comprehensive seagrass monitoring program at Gulf Islands National Seashore (GUIS). This project implements a hierarchical strategy, based on Neckles et al. (2011), to quantify the relationships between physical and biotic parameters that influence seagrass condition, distribution, persistence, and overall health. Protocols will be shared with an identical monitoring effort by the University of Texas Marine Science Institute at Upper Laguna Madre, Padre Island National Seashore, ensuring consistency and enabling comparative research across sites.

| Description: | This is a Notice of Intent to award a non-competitive Task Agreement under the Gulf Coast, Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Master Cooperative Agreement (H500002A271) in accordance with Department of the Interior, 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C. The purpose of this project is to implement a monitoring program for seagrasses at Gulf Islands National Seashore (GUIS). The approach follows the hierarchical strategy for seagrass monitoring outlined by Neckles et al. (2011) to establish the quantitative relationships between physical and biotic parameters that ultimately control seagrass condition, distribution, persistence, and overall health. This work will be share protocols with an identical monitoring conducted by the University of Texas Marine Science Institute at the Upper Laguna Madre, Padre Island National Seashore.
