Researchers at MSI are studying the sustainability of marine resources and applying their knowledge to inform stakeholders and policy makers on best practices for science-based management. Active areas of research include fisheries management, marine spatial planning, restoration, and methods for increasing science literacy with a goal towards promoting conservation and stewardship of our natural heritage for future generations. The Ocean and Coastal Policy Center (OCPC) seeks solutions to these and other is oriented toward problem-solving of significant coastal and ocean policy issues.
