From the NERRS Science Collaborative: Eleven projects involving 17 reserve sites across the nation and totaling more than $3 million have been recommended for support by NOAA’s National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS) Science Collaborative, managed by the University of Michigan Water Center.
From the National Estuarine Research Reserve Association (NERRA): The Institute Discovering Environmental Scientists (TIDES) program is a fully supported research opportunity that makes it possible for high school and college students and high school teachers of all economic backgrounds to participate. “The program makes up for any lost income from summer jobs and also offers transportation,” says Maija Niemisto, education specialist at the Hudson River Estuary Program.
