Events

Description: Collaborative science and the co-production of science involve working closely with partners at every stage – from conceptualizing a new project, to conducting the research, to refining tools to best meet a management need. The goal is to encourage mutually beneficial exchanges between researchers and resource managers. Essential to collaborative science is building relationships and engendering trust among the partners. NOAA’s NERRS Science Collaborative and RESTORE Science programs support collaborative science through funding and partnerships around protected and at-risk coastal and ocean areas.

This webinar, the first jointly hosted event between the NERRS Science Collaborative and RESTORE Science programs, will feature a panel discussion among three contributors to the programs, highlighting important lessons learned and experiences on how to become effective co-producers of science.

August 25th – Advancements in Geospatial Mapping Sensors Technologies and Procedures for Inland and Coastal Mapping

Join Oceans In Action 2021, an in-person event highlighting how marine science and technology research efforts are integrated into operational missions, results, and decision-making tools.  Featuring an event center where we can socially distance if necessary, this year’s event will also highlight results of the Advanced Naval Technology Exercise (ANTX) vignettes that took place in the Gulf of Mexico in 2020, as well as details on NOAA’s increased support to that program.

New to the program – the Port Security Summit hosted by the Port of Gulfport through the University of Southern Mississippi’s Mississippi Defense Initiative (MDI), a grant from the Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation.
