Abstract or Project Summary
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded $122,346 under the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Science, Observation, Monitoring, and Technology cooperative agreement program to Texas A&M University at Galveston to support research titled "Restoring Coastal Wetlands for Shorebirds: Leveraging Lessons Learned to Identify Research Priorities and Strategies to Maximize Future Success." The two-year project beginning September 1, 2021 aims to identify priority research questions and strategies for coastal wetland restoration to benefit shorebird populations. As the implementing organization, Texas A&M University at Galveston will leverage expertise from previous wetlands projects to inform future restoration efforts. The work supports NOAA's broader mission of ensuring long-term Gulf Coast ecosystem sustainability through science-based restoration.
