The award will fund the Reserve's work to advance the goals of the Coastal Zone Management Estuarine Research Reserves program, which provides assistance to U.S. states and territories to develop, operate and construct facilities for National Estuarine Research Reserves that serve as natural field laboratories for research, monitoring, education and training on estuarine systems. Specifically, the funding will support the Reserve's management and operation, environmental education programs, and long-term monitoring of the estuarine conditions and resources within the Rookery Bay reserve boundaries located in Tallahassee, Florida.
