Abstract: The National Research Council's Polar Research Board and Board on Environmental Science and Toxicology will appoint a special committee to review the scope, content, and structure of the draft science plan the Trustee Council is preparing to guide long-term research and monitoring in the northern Gulf of Alaska. To provide context for reviewing the draft plan, the committee will become familiar with the overall program of damage assessment and restoration research and monitoring activities that has been sponsored by the Council. The committee will prepare a final report with the conclusions and recommendations intended to give guidance on the nature and scope of future research and monitoring activities in the northern Gulf of Alaska.
