NEW JERSEY SEA GRANT CONSORTIUM SEA GRANT OMNIBUS PROPOSAL 2024-2027 OVERALL ABSTRACT PURPOSE NEW JERSEY SEA GRANT CONSORTIUM (NJSGC), THE HOST INSTITUTION FOR THE SEA GRANT PROGRAM IN NEW JERSEY, IS A NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION OF COLLEGES, UNIVERSITIES, AND OTHER PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ENTITIES. TOGETHER THIS ALLIANCE SHARES THE VISION OF A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR NEW JERSEY, WHERE CITIZENS AND VISITORS LIVE, WORK, AND PLAY IN HARMONY WITH THE STATES MARINE AND COASTAL RESOURCES. NJSGC MANAGEMENT AND STAFF WORK TOWARDS THIS VISION WITH FACULTY FROM EACH MEMBER INSTITUTION AND MANY OTHER LIKE-MINDED PARTNERS BY TAKING ON INITIATIVES THAT INCREASE KNOWLEDGE AND STEWARDSHIP OF NEW JERSEYS MARINE AND COASTAL ENVIRONMENT, INFORM COASTAL POLICY AND DECISION-MAKING, AND ENSURE THE RELEVANCE AND EXCELLENCE OF THE NEW JERSEY SEA GRANT COLLEGE PROGRAMS RESEARCH, EDUCATION, AND EXTENSION EFFORTS. ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED THE SEA GRANT PROGRAM AT NJSGC SUPPORTS STAKEHOLDER-DRIVEN RESEARCH, EXTENSION, COMMUNICATIONS, AND EDUCATION IN DIRECT SERVICE TO NEW JERSEYS COASTAL ENVIRONMENT AND ITS CITIZENS. EXTENSION EXPERTISE RANGES FROM COASTAL HAZARD MITIGATION AND SHORELINE ENGINEERING TO MARINE RECREATION, SHELLFISH AQUACULTURE, COMMUNITY RESILIENCE, AND WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT. COMMUNICATIONS DELIVERS DIVERSIFIED CREATIVE AND PRODUCTION SERVICES TO ALL PROGRAMMATIC AREAS AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CONVEYING INFORMATION TO THE MEDIA, THE PUBLIC AND TARGETED USER GROUPS USING ALL MEANS AND MEDIUMS INCLUDING PRINT, ELECTRONIC TECHNOLOGY, RADIO AND TV, AND WEB AND SOCIAL MEDIA. EDUCATION STAFF WORKS WITH A BROAD SET OF AUDIENCES, AND ESPECIALLY SCHOOLCHILDREN AND THEIR TEACHERS, TO ENGAGE THEM IN THE PROCESS OF MARINE, COASTAL AND CLIMATE SCIENCE AND PROVIDE THEM WITH DIRECT LEARNING EXPERIENCES FOCUSED ON UNDERSTANDING THE SCIENCE OF OUR SHORELINES AND HOW TO BEST CARE FOR THEM. COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE SUPPORTED THROUGH INTERNSHIPS, FELLOWSHIPS, SPECIALIZED COURSEWORK, AND INCLUSION IN FUNDED RESEARCH PROJECTS. OUTREACH EFFORTS, SUCH AS OCEAN FUN DAYS, LET ALL OF NEW JERSEYS CITIZENS AND VISITORS INCREASE KNOWLEDGE AND APPRECIATION OF NEW JERSEYS COASTAL RESOURCES. EXPECTED OUTCOMES OUR EXPECTED OUTCOMES FOR THIS FOUR-YEAR OMNIBUS PROPOSAL ARE GUIDED BY THE MISSION OF NJSGC AND THE MARINE AND COASTAL PRIORITY ISSUES PRESENTED TO US BY OUR STAKEHOLDERS. THESE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES ARE WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE FOUR FOCUS AREAS SET FORTH BY THE NATIONAL SEA GRANT STRATEGIC PLAN (2024-2027) AND SUBSEQUENTLY NJSGCS STRATEGIC PLAN. THE MAIN OBJECTIVE FOR THIS OMNIBUS PROPOSAL IS TO ENSURE A SUCCESSFUL IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NJSGC STRATEGIC PLAN THROUGH ITS COMMUNICATIONS, EDUCATION, EXTENSION, AND RESEARCH PROGRAMS PROJECTS AND ACTIVITIES THAT ALIGN WITH OUR FOCUS AREAS OF INTEREST, WHICH, ARE HEALTHY COASTAL ECOSYSTEMS (HCE), RESILIENT COMMUNITIES AND ECONOMIES (RCE), AND SUSTAINABLE FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE (SFA), AND ENVIRONMENTAL LITERACY AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT (ELWD). THE MAIN OUTCOME OF MANAGEMENTS SUPERVISION AND OVERSIGHT WILL BE A GROWING AND INTEGRATED SEA GRANT PROGRAM THAT IS ADDRESSING ITS STAKEHOLDER NEEDS WITHIN THE STATE BUT IS ALSO A PROGRAM THAT IS CONTRIBUTING TO THE SUCCESS OF THE NATIONAL SEA GRANT PROGRAM AND ITS NETWORKS. THIS WILL SET THE STAGE NOT ONLY FOR OUR FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMS FOR THE NEXT OMNIBUS CYCLE, BUT ALSO FOR FUTURE STRATEGIC PLANNING FOR 2028-2031. SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES SPONSORED RESEARCH REFLECTS LOCAL CONCERNS AND PROVIDES SOLUTIONS TO NEW JERSEYS MOST PRESSING MARINE AND COASTAL ISSUES INCLUDING WATER QUALITY, SHORELINE RESTORATION, DUNE AND BEACH MANAGEMENT AND OTHER EROSION CONCERNS, RECREATIONAL AND COMMERCIAL FISHERIES MANAGEMENT, AND COASTAL HAZARD MITIGATION. EXTENSION SERVICES, THROUGH CONSORTIUM MEMBERS MEMORANDA OF AGREEMENT, PROVIDE NEW JERSEYS CITIZENS, COASTAL MUNICIPALITIES, GOVERNMENT AND NON-GOVERNMENT GROUPS AND MARINE DEPENDENT INDUSTRIES WITH INFORMATION, ADVICE, AND TOOLS TO HELP THEM INCREA

NEW JERSEY SEA GRANT OMNIBUS PROPOSAL FOR 2010-2012

NEW JERSEY SEA GRANT CONSORTIUM (NJSGC) SEEKS TO PARTNER WITH COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY THROUGH ITS ECO AMBASSADOR PROGRAM AND WITH NEW YORK SEA GRANT (NYSG) THROUGH ITS SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM TO NOT ONLY DEVELOP TIMELY AND EFFECTIVE MARINE DEBRIS CURRICULA BUT TO ALSO EXPAND ITS ENVIRONMENTAL LITERACY OUTREACH TO SCHOOL DISTRICTS FROM MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES LOCATED IN NEW JERSEY AND NEW YORK URBAN WATERSHEDS. THE PROJECT WILL ALSO HELP TO EXPAND NYSG'S NEWLY-CREATED MARINE PLASTIC CURRICULUM AND WILL WORK WITH STUDENT ECO AMBASSADORS TO INTEGRATE CONTENT INTO STORYMAPS. ACTIVITIES TO BE PE

HERE, WE PROPOSE A PROJECT THAT LEVERAGES THE STEVENS FLOOD ADVISORY SYSTEM SFAS AND ITS LARGE USER BASE TO STUDY ENSEMBLE FORECAST COMMUNICATION AND TO CO-PRODUCE AN IMPROVED FORECAST WEBSITE AND SET OF DECISION-SUPPORT TOOLS. THE PRIMARY OBJECTIVES ARE: (1) GATHER END-USER FEEDBACK AND INPUT ON THE SFAS FORECAST WEBSITE, (2) TO CREATE AN IMPROVED FORECAST WEBSITE AND SET OF OPTIONS FOR VIEWING FLOOD METRICS, AND (3) TO EXPAND THE USER BASE, INCLUDING DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHIC AREAS AND UU (UNDERSERVED AND UNDERREPRESENTED) POPULATIONS. THE PROJECT WILL COMPRISE THREE PRIMARY CYCLES OF LEARNING AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT. THE FIRST CYCLE WILL GATHER INFORMATION THROUGH A PROJECT ADVISORY COMMITTEE AND AN INITIAL EVALUATION SURVEY SENT TO SFAS USERS AND APPLY IT TO DEVELOPING PROTOTYPES OF POTENTIAL WEBTOOLS AND FEATURES. THE SECOND CYCLE WILL FEATURE WORKSHOPS WITH USERS THAT EXPAND THE USER BASE TO MORE UU POPULATIONS AND SEEK FEEDBACK AND FURTHER INFORMATION ON USER NEEDS. THE THIRD AND FIN

PURPOSE: THE GOAL IS TO USE LOCAL STAKEHOLDER KNOWLEDGE AND OBSERVATIONS AND COMMONLY USED OCEANOGRAPHIC INSTRUMENTS AND ANALYTIC METHODS TO GAIN A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF HOW HYDRODYNAMIC PROCESSES INFLUENCE MORPHOLOGIC EVOLUTION AT NATURAL INLETS AND ADJACENT SHORELINES AND TRANSLATING THE GATHERED INFORMATION TO COASTAL STAKEHOLDERS AND DECISION MAKERS. THE TARGET STUDY AREA INCLUDES LITTLE EGG INLET AND BRIGANTINE INLET, WHICH ARE NATURAL, UNSTRUCTURED INLETS THAT SEPARATE LONG BEACH ISLAND, LITTLE BEACH ISLAND, AND BRIGANTINE ISLAND LOCATED IN ATLANTIC AND OCEAN COUNTIES, NEW JERSEY. ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: MULTIPLE TECHNIQUES WILL BE USED TO DETERMINE CURRENT PATTERNS AT TWO NATURAL TIDAL INLETS, LITTLE EGG INLET AND BRIGANTINE INLET, LOCATED WITHIN THE E.B. FORSYTHE NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE IN OCEAN COUNTY AND ATLANTIC COUNTY, NEW JERSEY. PROJECT TEAM INVESTIGATORS, STOCKTON GRADUATE, UNDERGRADUATES, AND STUDENTS FROM A NEARBY K-12 SCHOOL WILL CONSTRUCT AND DEPLOY LOW-COST
