Public Outreach, Education, and Extension Projects

* Estuarine and Coastal Processes
* Fisheries and Aquaculture
* Environmental Technology

Many of these projects address local and regional needs, while others have national or even global implications.

In addition to research, Woods Hole Sea Grant supports a marine extension program and an outreach and education program. During the 2008–2010 biennium, the program will support additional research efforts funded under peer-reviewed regional and national competitions. Major by-products of these projects include publications, workshops, and lectures. Since 1971, programmatic support has resulted in over 800 publications, including journal articles, theses, books, maps, fact sheets, pamphlets, posters, newsletters, and web-based products.

Research and outreach efforts involve the following academic institutions, as well as private industry:

* Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
* Marine Biological Laboratory
* Boston University
* Massachusetts Institute of Technology
* Bridgewater State College
* University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth
* Roger Williams University
