This Project Grant award for $199,106, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) Federal Grant Program (CFDA 47.070), will support a collaborative conference focused on utilizing the National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) pilot to advance sustainable Blue Economy research. The conference will bring together students, faculty, and researchers from four academic institutions, along with participants from fields like geoscience, computer science, biology, and civil engineering. Key objectives include promoting AI education and workforce development to support the Blue Economy, which encompasses research on the sustainable use of ocean resources to drive economic growth in areas such as marine resource management, ocean energy, sustainable fisheries and aquaculture, and maritime transportation. The award will fund this conference, which aims to tackle regional issues in the Mid-Atlantic, Gulf Coast, and Hawaii through coordinated efforts to enhance Blue Economy research, expand funding opportunities, and strengthen cross-sector partnerships. The project will run from October 1, 2025, to March 31, 2027.
