*<b>NOAA Awards $4.2 Million for Multi-stressor Research on South Florida’s
Coastal Ecosystems</b>*
NOAA (NCCOS, CPO, OAP, IOOS, ONMS) announces approximately $4.2 million in
funding for a four-year project to better understand the impact of
multi-stressors to marine protected areas under climate change. The goal of
this project is to assess how five key stressors (ocean acidification,
hypoxia, HABs, increased ocean temperatures, and eutrophication) are
impacting South Florida’s coastal and marine ecosystems, and to
characterize the impacts of these stressors under present and future
climate change scenarios, as well as Everglades, seagrass, and coral reef
restoration scenarios, including Mission: Iconic Reefs. Resource managers
will use these products to prepare for the anticipated impacts of climate
change by increasing their understanding as to how multiple stressors are
likely to interact and affect these ecosystems and the communities
dependent on them.
