The Alaska Sea Grant College Program conducts marine and coastal research, public education, and marine industry advisory services to help Alaskans wisely use and conserve the state's ocean resources.
Funding comes from the state and federal government, and from industry.
2000-2001 Project Summaries From 2000 to 2001, Alaska Sea Grant is undertaking 8 marine research projects, supporting 8 graduate students at the University of Alaska, and carrying out a statewide public education and industry advisory program. Research projects described here address important regional issues identified by Alaska Sea Grant through consultation with marine user groups, members of the seafood industry, and officials in state and federal government agencies. Each project was subjected to mail review by peers outside Alaska, and was then considered by an advisory panel in Seattle.
