About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) was awarded a $562,000 Cooperative Agreement from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) under the Congressionally Identified Awards and Projects program (CFDA 11.469). The 5-year project aims to transform a 6.5-acre wetland on UTRGV's Port Isabel campus into an accessible outdoor classroom and laboratory. Key project components include: (1) an experimental living shoreline to protect ~2,000 linear feet of eroding shoreline; (2) an elevated marsh observatory to support K-12 education and UTRGV marine science courses; and (3) a pier-based ocean science sensor array to enable water, plankton, and fish larvae sampling for student and faculty research. The project will integrate social, environmental, and economic considerations to achieve sustainable coastal solutions, while providing hands-on learning opportunities for UTRGV undergraduate and graduate students.
