Most projects provide student support and training opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Funding for the research is from NOAA through the National Sea Grant College Program, along with matching funds from the state and the campuses leading the respective projects.\u00a0The following studies will run through early 2024:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Assessing Long-Term Water Temperature Patterns in North Carolina Estuaries: A Key for Gauging and Predicting Ecosystem Health in an Era of Global Change<\/strong><br \/>Joel Fodrie, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trickle-Down Effects of Increasing Coastal Sediment Loads on Tidal-Creek Levee Morphology, Salt-Marsh Platform Accretion, and Resilience to Sea-Level Rise Since AD 1900<\/strong><br \/>Antonio Rodriguez, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Identifying the Drivers of Chronic Coastal Flooding: A Community-Centric Approach<\/strong><br \/>Katherine Anarde, North Carolina State University, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>JustWater: Policy Leadership and Environmental Justice During Disaster Recovery<\/strong><br \/>Bethany Cutts, North Carolina State University, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Assessing Spatial and Temporal Controls on Sediment Transport in Currituck Sound<\/strong><br \/>David Lagomasino, East Carolina University, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Understanding the Effects of a Newly Discovered Trematode Parasite on Wild and Cultured Bay Scallop Production<\/strong><br \/>Julia Buck, University of North Carolina Wilmington, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Potential Impacts of Marine Dredging on Key Commercial and Recreational Fish and Shellfish: Informing Decisions Regarding Mitigation and Seasonal Closures of Dredging to Maintain North Carolina&#8217;s State Ports<\/strong><br \/>David Eggleston, North Carolina State University, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Assessing Influence of Sea-Level Rise Induced Salt Intrusion and Associated Circulation Change on Southern Flounder Recruitment Processes in Albemarle-Pamlico Sound<\/strong><br \/>Qianqian Liu, University of North Carolina Wilmington, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Multi-Trophic Waste Management for Finfish Mariculture in Land-Based Recirculating Aquaculture Systems Using the Salt-Tolerant Halophyte Salicornia virginica<\/strong><br \/>*Md Shah Alam, University of North Carolina Wilmington, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p><strong>Developing a Model for Supporting Coastal Resilience through Youth-Led Coproduction<\/strong><br \/>Kathryn Stevenson, North Carolina State University, principal investigator<\/p>\n<p>For updates, follow North Carolina Sea Grant\u2019s Twitter and Facebook feeds, and check back here.<\/p>\n<p><strong>funding opportunities at North Carolina Sea Grant<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/funding-opps\/\"><em>ncseagrant.ncsu.edu\/funding-opps<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>*updated PI<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">##<\/p>\n<p><em>lead photo: courtesy of NASA.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research teams across the state recently have begun work on North Carolina Sea Grant\u2019s new core projects.
