This site provides information about ongoing efforts to develop a Research Coordination Network (RCN) with the overarching goal of establishing a collaborative international interdisciplinary network that integrates policy and science in support of research and monitoring in the Ross Sea region MPA.
Our proposed framework comprises three key components (see above, boxes left to right): policy engagement, community partner engagement, and integrated science which consists of data science and cyberinfrastructure, biophysical modeling, and observations, including monitoring and process studies. The placement of the RSRMPA at the center of the framework emphasizes the importance of understanding the structure and function of this ecosystem and its threats. The proposed framework for achieving policy-engaged science uses a policy (outer ring) and community partner informed coordination space (second outer ring), within which policy-relevant science (third ring inward) is conducted.
Please explore the above tabs to find our more about this effort, along with Ongoing Activities (including newly funded efforts) and Resources (including Funding opportunities). Please use the "Contact Us" tab to get in touch and/or join our effort.
