About this award
The University of the Virgin Islands (UVI) was awarded a $786,917 research grant on June 16, 2022, to investigate climate change and the effects of golden tides on Caribbean coastal sustainability through multiscale predictions for this emerging biocomplex problem. The grant, which is not subject to any set-aside designation, is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2026, and will be performed in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. This civilian research grant supports UVI's Office of Sponsored Programs in conducting applied environmental and marine science research that leverages the university's unique geographic location to address regional challenges in the Caribbean.
This award aligns with UVI's established expertise in marine and environmental sciences, areas that have been supported by multiple federal agencies including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Science Foundation (NSF), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). As a historically black, land-grant institution and the primary institution of higher education in the U.S. Virgin Islands, UVI frequently serves as a prime grantee for research projects emphasizing environmental monitoring, coastal ecosystem preservation, and climate adaptation studies. The research under this contract contributes to broader understanding of harmful algal blooms and their ecological impacts while supporting capacity building and scientific advancement in an underrepresented region.
