*FY 2012 Funding Opportunity*
*_Title_*: Regional Ecosystem Prediction Program: From Science to
Management: Improving Management of Mesophotic Coral Ecosystems in the
U.S. Caribbean
*_Due Date_*: Full proposals are due September 28, 2011 at 3 p.m.
Eastern Time.
*_Description_*:
NOAA's Center for Sponsored Coastal Ocean Research (NOAA/CSCOR) is
soliciting proposals under the Regional Ecosystem Prediction Program:
From Science to Management for a project to synthesize existing
information on mesophotic coral ecosystems within the U.S. Caribbean,
describe linkages to resource management responsibilities, analyze both
known and potential threats to MCEs, and develop viable options for
managing them, as well as identify gaps in information for future
research.This information will be used to improve the ability of
resource managers to proactively develop strategies to protect poorly
understood mesophotic coral ecosystems, including coastal and marine
spatial planning and the siting of marine protected areas and marine
protected area networks for shallow and mesophotic coral ecosystems.
One to two projects are expected to be supported for up to 3 years in
duration with a budget of approximately $500,000 for projects focused
solely on Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands; or one project of up
to 3 years in duration with a budget of approximately $750,000 for a
U.S. Caribbean-wide project (excluding Navassa Island).
