Volume 3 of Understanding Ecosystem Processes in the Gulf of Alaska is now complete, 13 papers and an introductory paper is available through Deep Sea Research II: Topical Studies in Oceanography.
Council-funded Gulf Watch Alaska and Herring Research and Monitoring Program PIs and their research contributed to this special issue. Congratulations!
On Saturday, June 4th, the ribbon was cut on the new 5-acre Prince William Sound Science Center waterfront campus, a once-in-a-generation opportunity that will make the region and Alaska more competitive for national-level research funding, support high-wage jobs, generate new STE(A)M education opportunities, and advance industries such as mariculture, aquaculture, and commercial fishing.
A short film captures 15 months of construction in 1.5 minutes – a project made possible by nearly 150 donations (including 57 local contributions) and major donors such as the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council, M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust, Conoco Phillips Alaska, and Rasmuson Foundation.
The Council has awarded over $56,500,000 to PWSSC since 1992, including $23,450,000 for the construction of the new facilities.
