The US Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a cooperative agreement specifically for a CESU-affiliated partner to conduct crucial research on coastal ecosystems and hazards. This grant is dedicated to the development of sophisticated models that will assess the significant role of coral and oyster reef restoration in effectively reducing coastal hazards. The primary research objective directly supports the Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program’s (CMHRP) Coastal Change Hazards (CCH) and Integrated Coastal and Marine Systems (ICMS) priority areas. This initiative aims to advance our understanding of ecosystem-based coastal protection, ultimately benefiting vulnerable coastal communities by providing innovative solutions for hazard mitigation.
