This funding supports research to characterize tidal creek water chemistry in fresh and salt marshes of Louisiana's Barataria Basin. The goal is to develop a decision support tool assessing wetland recovery following oil spill damage and restoration efforts. Funded activities include data collection, aggregation, analysis, and addressing critical information gaps. The work aligns with federal environmental statutes and restoration plans related to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, supporting ecosystem-scale restoration and resilience.
Eligibility is open to others as specified in additional information, likely including CESU partners and affiliated organizations involved in ecosystem studies and restoration research.
