North Carolina Sea Grant and the Water Resources Research Institute of the University of North Carolina system <\/a>jointly provide competitive funding for projects that explore current water resource and coastal issues in North Carolina. Three projects were chosen for funding in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese projects address the noted focus areas, and simultaneously meet the organizational priorities of both WRRI and NCSG. They also all include a thorough outreach plan, helping ensure that the data and products generated from these projects will have broad applicability,\u201d notes John Fear, deputy director of both programs.<\/p>\n

\u201cDrought Resilience: An Integrative Project\u201d will create video and online modules that educate audiences about water resources management and conservation. Lucy Laffitte, UNC-TV<\/a>, is the principal investigator. Michele Drostin, Dana Haine and Kathleen Gray, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\u2019s Institute for the Environment<\/a>, are co-principal investigators.<\/p>\n

\u201cLand Application of Aquaculture Effluents To Prevent Surface Water Eutrophication and Promote Groundwater Re-Infiltration in Coastal North Carolina\u201d will build and test a system that diverts wastewater from land-based aquaculture to woody biomass production. Harry Daniels, North Carolina State University<\/a>, is the principal investigator. Elizabeth Guthrie Nichols and Dennis W. Hazel, also from NC State, are the co-principal investigators.<\/p>\n

\u201cCoastal Groundwater Watch\u201d involves citizen scientists. They will help develop adaptation and mitigation strategies to assess the potential effects of a progressively shallower water table caused by rising sea level. Alex Manda, principal investigator, and Tom Allen, co-principal investigator, are both from East Carolina University<\/a>.<\/p>\n
