Description
This Project Proposes to Renew the Cooperative Institute for Marine, Earth, and Atmospheric Systems (Cimeas), Which Over the Last Five Years Has Worked in Close Collaboration with NOAA to Support Comprehensive Observation, Modeling, and Management Programs. The Goal of This Project Is to Increase Our Shared Understanding of Coupled Earth Systems, Including Ecosystems, to Collaborate on Carrying Out Noaas Mission of Science, Service, and Stewardship to (1) Understand and Predict Changes in Climate, Weather, Oceans, and Coasts, (2) Share That Knowledge and Information with Others, and (3) Conserve and Manage Coastal and Marine Ecosystems and Resources. Cimeas Represents Nine Partner Institutions, Providing World-Class Research and Educational Capabilities to Support Regional and Oceanic Observing Systems, Analysis, and Modeling to Understand and Predict Changes in the California Current, Including Coasts and Watersheds, the Pacific Ocean, and the Southern Ocean. The Experience and Expertise of Researchers and Educators at the Supporting Academic Institutions Are Documented in This Proposal Along with the Enabling Infrastructure and Facilities at the Institutions. Cimeas Will Connect a Vast Reservoir of Expertise and Facilities to NOAA Through the Many Partner Universities, Going Far Beyond the Capability of Any One Institution to Develop Integrated Programs with Excellence in All Parts of the Coupled System Relevant to Four Research Themes: 1. Science to Support Ecosystem-Based Management of Living Marine Resources. 2. Research, Development and Technology Innovation for Global Ocean Observations and Monitoring.
