About this award

The University of California Santa Cruz received a two-year, $203,531 Project Grant from the Department of the Navy's Office of Naval Research to support a multi-purpose research platform for ecological and applied research on cetaceans in California. The platform will conduct basic and applied scientific research on whales and dolphins under the Basic and Applied Scientific Research program (CFDA 12.300), which aims to improve naval operations through externally-performed research with potential military applications. The grant period is from April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2023. As the prime awardee, UC Santa Cruz will leverage the funding to operate a research vessel and deploy equipment for data collection to advance understanding of cetacean biology, ecology, and human impacts. Findings could inform the Navy's marine mammal protection efforts and management of activities that may affect local whale and dolphin populations.
