Activities
The NCCOS Competitive Research Program (CRP) funds regional-scale research through a competitive, peer-reviewed process to address our nation’s most pressing ocean and coastal issues. CRP is the extramural branch of NCCOS, directly supporting the research needs of the National Ocean Service offices and resource managers. CRP expands NCCOS capabilities to meet stakeholder needs by funding external research. Our goal is to develop actionable information and tools to improve how the nation protects, manages, and conserves ocean and coastal ecosystems. Research focal areas are determined by engaging stakeholders and the scientific community through workshops, roundtables, and policy forums.
