Northeast Regional Sea Grant Announces Request for 2014 Social Science Research Proposals

States in the northeast share many emerging problems, including environmental changes to our shared ecosystem that may damage people, homes and the economy. Recognizing that some issues are best addressed at the regional scale, the Northeast Sea Grant Programs (New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, MIT, Woods Hole, New Hampshire, and Maine), through the Northeast Sea Grant Consortium, have set aside funds (approximately $350,000) for social science research proposals that have relevance to the Gulf of Maine and Greater New York Bight regions (from the Canadian Border to Cape May, NJ). For more information, see the RFP (pdf).
