Agency

Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) - Department of Commerce
Description
The
NOAA Marine Debris Program (MDP), authorized in the Marine Debris Act, provides
funding to support eligible organizations to conduct research directly related
to marine debris through field, laboratory, and modeling
experiments.
The
MDP invites applications for research funding in any of three areas of focus:
1.
research
that explores the ecological risk associated with marine debris and determines
debris exposure levels;
2.
research
that examines the fate and transport of marine debris; and/or
3.
research
that quantifies habitat impacts resulting from marine debris and the gains in
ecosystem services that result when debris is removed.
Projects
may address one or more of these research priorities and should be original,
hypothesis-driven projects that have not previously been addressed to scientific
standards.
