NCCOS provides research, scientific information and tools to help balance the Nation’s ecological, social and economic goals. Our partnerships with local and national coastal managers are essential in providing science and services to benefit communities and the Nation. The research and tools we provide are central to addressing coastal issues raised in legislation and NOAA’s priorities. We seek to help coastal communities protect themselves from harmful algae, contamination and the implications of changing climate. We also provide the research necessary for communities to develop effective and sustainable management of their resources. Through competitive research funding, NCCOS also engages the nation’s best talent to develop cutting-edge science for coastal management applications. NCCOS’s four major research priorities are: climate impacts, coastal ecosystem management, coastal pollution, and harmful algal blooms.

NCCOS anticipates science and science products (e.g. maps, forecasts, and models) to be used by coastal communities to protect themselves from harmful algae, water contamination, eutrophication and sea level rise and coastal storms. It is expected that NCCOS research will also provide critical information for communities to develop effective and sustainable management of their resources. Research efforts will lead to faster and more accurate and efficient assessment and monitoring of coastal ecosystems, earlier warning and more accurate forecasts of harmful algal bloom and pathogens, and provide tools to help communities assess and address their vulnerabilities to sea level rise and coastal storms.
