SECTION A The Ocean/Marine Market BG

G 2016
US Government Fiscal Year 2016 Budget
.S. President Barack Obamas budget proposal for fscal

year (FY) 2016 seeks to bring middle-class economics
into the 21st century, with the goals of strengthening the
American middle class and investing in sustainable growth.
The budget would reduce the defcit by $1.8 trillion, which
is below 3 percent of GDP, primarily from reforms to health
programs, the tax code and immigration.
The administration emphasizes replacing mindless austerity with smart reforms, proposing to end sequestration in
2016, fully reversing it for domestic priorities, matched by
equal dollar increases for defense funding.
The following are the ocean-related portions of the FY
2016 budget proposal.
Navy
Of the proposed $534.3 billion defense budget, the U.S.
Department of the Navys budget would be $161.0 billion.
The Navy requested $44.4 billion for procurement, focusing on providing stability in the shipbuilding account
and keeping the Navy on track to reach 304 ships by FY
2020. In FY 2016, the Navy will buy nine new ships, including two Arleigh Burke destroyers, two Virginia-class submarines, three littoral combat ships, as well as the frst nextgeneration logistics feet resupply ship, the T-AO(X).
Full funding for the procurement of a dock landing ship
(LPD-28), which Congress provided partial funds for in the
FY 2015 budget, would be included.
Operations and maintenance would receive $50.4 billion, and research and development would receive $17.9
billion.
NOAA
NOAAs FY 2016 budget proposal amounts to about $6
billion and supports its priorities of providing information
and services to make communities and economies more resilient; evolving NOAAs National Weather Service; investing in observational infrastructure; and achieving organizational excellence.
NOAAs budget would provide: $550.8 million for the
National Ocean Service; $956.9 million for the National
Marine Fisheries Service; $507 million for the Offce of
Oceanic and Atmospheric Research; $1.10 billion for the
National Weather Service; $2.4 billion for the National
Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service;
$648.8 million for program support; and $159.4 million for
fnancing.
Community and economic resilience programs would
receive $175.4 million, including: $45 million in regional
coastal resilience grants; $2.3 million for a climate resilience toolkit; $21.4 million for integrated ocean acidifcation research; $4.5 million to support the growth of U.S.sourced aquaculture; and $4.4 million for Arctic issues.
The National Weather Service would receive $35 million, comprising: $7.4 million for Nexrad service life extension; $4 million for enhanced water prediction capability;
$1.7 million for warn-on forecast; $9.7 million for upgrade
of dissemination infrastructure; $1.8 million for operational
supercomputing; and $9 million for mid-range forecasting.
Observation infrastructure would receive $572.2 million,
including: $147 million for ocean survey vessels and $2.5
million for space weather operations and modeling.
10 SECTION A The Ocean/Marine Market BG 2016
Organization excellence efforts would receive $22 million, including: $9 million for R&D high-performance computing recapitalization.
USGS
The presidents FY 2016 budget request for the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is $1.2 billion.
There would be an increase of more than $6.6 million
above the FY 2015 enacted level for natural hazard science,
including an increase of $4.9 million to expand the Global
Seismic Network for worldwide earthquake monitoring and
tsunami warning.
The budget includes $15.6 million to expand, enhance
and initiate ecosystem science activities to increase the understanding of U.S. landscapes and how they work, including a $4.2 million increase for the Arctic and a $1.5 million
increase that supports science for Puget Sound, Columbia
River and the upper Mississippi River.
An increase by $5.1 million would support coastal resilience to hazards and adaptation to long-term change from
sea level rise and coastal erosion. A $4 million increase
would fund Landsat science products for climate and resource assessments. An increase of $3.7 million would
expand 3D elevation data collection using interferometric
synthetic aperture radar for Alaska and lidar elsewhere in
the U.S. in response to growing needs for high-quality, highresolution elevation data to understand and mitigate the effects of coastal erosion, storms and other hazards, among
other critical activities. A $1.1 million increase for the Big
Earth Data Initiative would make high-value data sets easier
to discover, access and use.
Science to support climate resilience and adaptation
would receive an increase of $32 million above the FY 2015
enacted level. The budget includes a $6.8 million increase
in science for adaptation and resilience planning related to
climate change; an increase of $2.3 million to provide interagency coordination of regional climate science activities across the U.S.; an increase of $8.7 million to support
biological carbon sequestration; and an increase of $11
million to support the community resilience toolkit, which
is a Web-based clearinghouse of data, tools, shared applications and best practices for resource managers, decision
makers and the public.
NASA
For FY 2016, NASAs budget request is $18.5 billion. The
agencys science activities would receive $5.3 billion, including $1.9 billion for Earth science, such as Landsat global land-imaging measurements. Human exploration operations would receive $8.5 billion; space technology would
receive $725 million; aeronautics research would receive
$571 million; education, e.g., STEM-related efforts, would
receive $89 million; and safety, security and mission services and construction and environmental remediation would
receive $3.3 billion.
BOEM
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) requests a total budget of $170.9 million, an increase of $1.1
million over the FY 2015 enacted level. This request comprises: $24.3 million for renewable energy; $59.9 million
for conventional energy; $68 million for environmental pro-
grams; and $18.7 million for executive direction.

Collaborative efforts on ecosystem science would receive
$500,000 more than the FY 2015 enacted level. This funding would support BOEMs engagement in Arctic Council
efforts, including research on climate change and adaptation.
The budget includes proposed legislative reforms regarding the management of the Department of Interiors onshore
and offshore oil and gas programs, with a focus on improving taxpayer return on the sale of these resources. The reforms would generate $2.5 billion in net revenue to the U.S.
Treasury over 10 years. Many states would also beneft from
higher federal revenue-sharing payments as a result of these
reforms, according to BOEM.
BSEE
The budget request for the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) is $204.7 million, which
would enable BSEE to keep pace with industry activity and
technology developments helping to drive deepwater oil
and gas development on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS). Funds would be used to recruit expert engineers, scientists, inspectors and oil spill prevention specialists to support the development of risk-based approaches to oversight
and compliance on the OCS.
The FY 2016 budget request includes an increase of $1.7
million to establish the Engineering Technology Assessment
Center to support the evaluation of new and emerging technologies and develop associated safety and oversight protocols.
The request also includes an increase of $750,000 for
establishing the Renewable Energy Inspection Program to
support the development of regulations, inspection guidelines, procedures and criteria for inspections of offshore renewable energy facilities so that the appropriate regulatory
structure will be in place to protect the safety of these facilities and the environment.
Oil spill research would receive $14.9 million, equal
to the 2015 enacted level. The Oil Spill Research program
plays a pivotal role in initiating applied research to support
decision making on methods and equipment to prevent or
mitigate oil spills, which is a critical component of the offshore permitting process. The request addresses key knowledge and technology gaps in oil spill response, focusing on
deepwater and Arctic environments.
Department of Energy
For FY 2016, the Department of Energy (DOE) has requested $29.9 billion, which, compared to the FY 2015 enacted level, is an increase of $2.5 billion.
Supporting innovation, achieving energy security and advancing clean technologies are a part of the DOE strategy.
The budget request for the department supports this mission
by offering funding for clean energy technologies and research efforts. For science and energy programs, $10.7 billion has been requested. This amount is $1.3 billion more
than the enacted level of funding in 2015.
Continuing initiatives from last year, the budget supports
crosscutting programs that focus on shared challenges, including the energy-water nexus, subsurface technology and
engineering, and grid modernization.
Funding has been increased for research regarding re-
newable power and sustainable transportation. A request of

$2.72 billion would fund energy effciency and renewable
energy programs.
Army Corps of Engineers
For the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Civil Works Program, $4.732 billion in gross discretionary funding was set
aside in the presidents FY 2016 budget.
The largest portion of the budget, about $2.7 billion,
would go towards operations and maintenance.
Navigation projects for inland and coastal waters will receive $1.9 billion. Waterways with high traffc and coastal
harbors are given priority within the budget. Harbors that
provide public transportation or support the commercial
fshing industry will also be funded.
More than 10 studies will receive funding, including research on food risk, navigation, ecosystem restoration and
water supply.
Ongoing construction projects with the highest levels of
funding for FY 2016 are the Olmsted Locks and Dam in Illinois and Kentucky, an ecosystem restoration project in South
Florida and Herbert Hoover Dike in Florida.
The North Atlantic Coast Comprehensive Study was completed by the Corps this year, and the budget will support the
focus areas identifed in the study. The report set up a framework of measures to encourage resilience and mange food
risk along more than 30,000 miles of coast.
Natural disaster response would receive $39 million,
including $34 million to train and prepare for hurricanes,
foods and other disasters.
National Science Foundation
The National Science Foundation (NSF) was provided
with $7.7 billion, going toward investments for research
and supporting science, technology, engineering and math
(STEM) education.
Programs and activities to address resilience were allotted
$58 million as a way to help respond to natural and manmade disasters.
Interdisciplinary research focused on understanding and
modeling the food, energy and water system was given $75
million. The effort spans all aspects of the felds of science
and engineering.
The budget will bolster working toward a clean-energy
economy. Investing in education and research on alternative energy, like wind or wave, and chemical or biofuels was
provided $377 million.
To develop a more competitive workforce, the budget
provides support of STEM felds by funding graduate research fellowships, research traineeships and scholarships
for service.
Increasing access to research is also a priority. The NSF
expects to save about $500,000 each year starting in FY
2016 by using virtual panels, as compensation is lowered for
reviewers participating virtually.
Environmental Protection Agency
The FY 2016 budget affords $8.6 billion to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which aims to protect the
health of the population and the environment. The budget
encompasses reducing carbon pollutants, creating more
sustainable water infrastructure, and helping communities

adapt to climate change and become more resilient.

An incentive for states that exceed the parameters of the
Clean Power Plan, which is set to be fnalized this summer,
is included in the budget at $4 billion.
Climate action is a priority in the budget, with $239
million going towards programs that respond to climate
change. The transportation sector will be targeted in the effort to address climate change, and the EPA will work with
water programs to lessen greenhouse gas emissions.
Aging water infrastructure is also addressed in the budget. The Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving
Funds have been allotted $2.3 billion, and other efforts to
improve infrastructure are budgeted at $50 million.
For State and Tribal Assistance Grant funding, the budget
provides $3.6 billion, an increase of more than $108 million, to jointly tackle environmental challenges. Joint governance boosts both transparency and effciency.
Maritime Administration
To support shipping and port operations, the Maritime
Administration (MARAD) has requested $406.8 million.
Representing $36.6 million above FY 2015, the operations and training budget was requested at $184.6 million.
This includes the Merchant Marine Academy as well as
MARAD operations and programs.
For the Merchant Marine Academy, $96.0 million was
requested. This number is $16.9 million more than the previous year. Academy operations and the Capital Asset Management program have been appropriated $71.3 million
and $24.7 million, respectively.
More than $7 million above the FY 2015 budget, the request for academy operations includes funding for an upgrade to the simulator program, increases to contracts for
food and medical services, and requirements for training
vessels.
Capital improvement projects, including maintenance
and repairs for facilities and equipment requirements, are
funded through the Capital Asset Management Program.
Gibbs Hall, Melville Hall and Fulton Hall were identifed
as priorities.
State maritime academies have been allotted $34.6 million, an increase in last years amount by $16.1 million, to
maintain and service training ships. A 53-year-old training
ship will be out of service in 2019, and the focus of initial
renovations will be on replacing this vessel. The new ship
will service national security, emergency and humanitarian
missions.
12 SECTION A The Ocean/Marine Market BG 2016
A request of $54.1 million is for MARAD operations and

programs. The Headquarters Operations program is included in that amount, with $50.1 million in funding, and the
Maritime Environment and Technology Assistance program
has been given $4 million for initiatives that support the program.
The ship disposal program has a request of $8 million, a
$4 million increase from the previous year. Of that amount,
$5 million will fund obsolete vessel disposal.
To maintain commercial vessels that allow a presence in
commerce overseas, the Maritime Security program has a
budget request of $186 million. This amount would allow
for $3.1 million to go towards each of the programs 60 vessels.
For the 2016 budget, the Title XI loan portfolio will be
supported by $3.1 million. ST

would obviously prefer to focus their energies on
landing, producing and harvesting more fsh, increasingly,
members of both sectors have been engaged in trying to
understandand come to terms withoverwhelming evidence of increased ocean acidifcation and the potential
impacts on their respective industries.
Ocean acidifcation occurs when carbon dioxide emissions are absorbed by seawater, seriously changing ocean
chemistry and impacting marine life.
So far, shellfsh have served as the primary fgurative
canary in the coal mine for those who study and assess
the impacts of increased ocean acidifcation. While most
experts believe increased levels of acidifcation will impact
marine species throughout the food chain, what is currently
known regarding shellfsh response is already cause for concern.
Enough so that U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.)
has recently introduced a bipartisan bill to enhance ocean
monitoring, research and forecasting. The bill is widely supported by industry.
The Coordinated Ocean Monitoring and Research Act (S.
1886) would create a national ocean acidifcation monitoring strategy that, among other things, would prioritize investments in ocean acidifcation sensors for areas that need
it most.
The bill also directs NOAA and the National Science
Foundation (NSF) to make investments in adaptation and
mitigation research to make coastal economies more resilient to the threat of ocean acidifcation.
The act would require NOAA to build upon these models
and conduct a nationwide economic vulnerability assessment to determine the impact ocean acidifcation would
have on the U.S. economy and coastal ecosystems.
The bill would require NOAA to develop a strategy for
the deployment of new ocean acidifcation sensorsbased
on the economic vulnerability assessment.
Often at the forefront of acidifcation response measures,
Cantwell secured funding in 2010 to acquire and deploy
ocean acidifcation sensors near major shellfsh hatcheries
in Washington state.
Today, these sensors have been integrated into NOAAs
national ocean observing programthe IOOS program.
These sensors allow shellfsh growers to monitor ocean
acidity in real time and close off their shellfsh-rearing tanks

when ocean acidity is too high.
Enhanced data collection protocols included in
Cantwells current legislation are critical for scientists to
help close knowledge gaps and better understand how
ocean acidifcation could impact U.S. fsheries and ecosystems.
Cantwells bill would also improve coordination between
ocean science and monitoring and the National Weather
Service, plus the bill authorizes a program to measure and
share marine sound.
Ocean acidifcation is truly a national issue, experts say.
Communities on all three coasts are potentially affected
by ocean acidifcation impacts on their local fsheries, according to a recent study.
According to the study, at highest risk were coastal communities and fsheries in the following states: Massachusetts,
New Jersey, Virginia, Washington, Oregon, Connecticut,
New York, Rhode Island, Maine, Florida, North Carolina,
California, Louisiana, Maryland and Texas.
Interestingly, ongoing aquaculture research and production projects may play a key role in helping the vast U.S.
shellfsh industry understand and adapt to increased acidifcation. The knowledge and experience gained in working
with shellfsh may also help fshermen and fsh farmers prepare for and respond to possible acidifcation impacts on
other marine species in the future.
One short-term solution shellfsh hatcheries in the Pacifc
Northwest are currently testing is injecting acidic ocean water with carbonates that are needed for organisms like clams
and mussels to develop hard shells. But in the long term,
scientists say they may need to turn to genetics for answers.
Ideally we can start looking at species that are more resilient to ocean acidifcation and adapting the commercial
fsheries and commercial processing to animals that have
that robustness to tolerate ocean acidifcation as opposed to
the ones that are more vulnerable to it, said NOAA oceanographer Jeremy Mathis.
So, a hatchery operator could potentially choose to make
the shift from some common species being raised now to
ones that may be more acidifcation-resistant.
These are things that we should be taking a strong look
at, because it could be that there are other strains of shellfsh
that could be used that would be more successful in a mariculture setting. But, it is a very thorny issue, said Gretchen
Hofmann, researcher and marine biology professor at the
University of California Santa Barbara.
Hofmann says its important for industry and scientists to
start partnering now, to get ahead of the game as much as
possible.
The frst thing we have to do, though, is get carbon dioxide emission levels under control and then we can deal with
the damage that has already been done through mitigation
and adaptation strategies, said Mathis.
While there is much more to know regarding the impacts
of acidifcation on marine species, scientists have already
determined that proper shell production and growth rates in
shellfsh are being negatively affected.
As Cantwell has previously pointed out, more research is
critically needed to understand this issue, but also to assess
how acidifcation may be impacting other key components
in the food chain for higher-value species, such as salmon.
With more questions than answers currently on the table,

many fshermen and fsh farmers are now becoming painfully aware of ocean acidifcationa term virtually unknown
in the U.S. seafood community until recently. ST

Is Our Industrys Success Hindering

Opportunities in the Atlantic?
e are taught that good work yields rewards and success. However, in the logic-turned-upside-down
world of Washington, D.C., current federal energy policies
are yielding the opposite result. Ten years ago, more than
half of the oil consumed in the United States was imported
from other countries. Organizations, such as the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), essentially
set the price of oil, and the U.S., along with most of the rest
of the world, had no choice but to pay whatever prices were
dictated. Unrest in the Middle East often resulted in skyrocketing oil prices and increased pain at the pump. In the span
of one decade, consumers saw the price of a gallon of gasoline surpass $4.00 more than once.
Feeling the pinch in their wallets, U.S. consumers called
for less dependence on foreign energy and increased production of domestic energy from all sources, including renewables, but especially from the fossil fuels. The oil and
gas industry took up the challenge, and, through the development and use of new technologies both onshore and offshore, within a few years the U.S. became the world leader
in oil and natural gas production. As the U.S. imported less
oil and produced more of its own, OPEC was faced with real
competition and amped up its production. The concept of
supply and demand brought positive results for energy users.
Natural gas prices remained very competitive, and manufacturing and other energy-dependent industries began a
renaissance of economic growth and production. Gasoline
prices dropped, motorists had more money to spend elsewhere, and the economy continued to slowly revive.
U.S. oil and natural gas producers showed they could
successfully compete with the worlds oil cartels. While onshore activity led the way, long-awaited offshore projects
came on line and began to reverse the decline in offshore
oil production. The U.S. had established a reliable and reasonably priced two-pronged method for meeting the energy
needs of the nation and the world. In addition, wind power
continued to add more energy to the U.S. mix. After half a
century of energy dependence, the U.S. is approaching energy suffciency, reliability and independence.
Unfortunately, while low energy prices are great for the
consumer, there is a fip side. After pulling the U.S. out of
the 2008 to 2009 recession, energy related jobs began to
decline as low oil prices ate into proft margins. Swift Worldwide Resources reports that the number of oil and gas jobs
lost globally exceeds 150,000. More cuts seem likely as
even the possibility of Iran re-entering the international oil
market sent prices down again.
The good news is that the oil and gas industry is very resilient and has seen low commodity prices before. Technology will continue to advance, increasing energy production
effciency. As the world economy improves, market analysts
predict that oil prices will eventually rise. Greater avail-

ability of oil on the world market benefts U.S. consumers.

A consistent, reliable and long-term supply of oil will decrease market volatility and the roller-coaster ride of gasoline prices. The ability of the U.S. to continue to produce
onshore and offshore oil and natural gas is key to providing
that market stability.
However, the lack of pain in their wallets has made American consumers complacent. Content with an abundant and
affordable supply of gasoline, many consumers are no longer letting their political leaders know that long-term energy
solutions are still necessary. Who flls the void left by silent
U.S. consumers? Right now it is the environmental activists,
many bent on stopping all forms of fossil fuel development.
Their answer to possible climate effects of greenhouse gases
is shortsighted, not based on science and emotional: simply
leave all oil and gas resources in the ground. No exceptions.
For an example, we need look no further than the debate
currently playing out over proposed oil and gas exploration
and production off the Atlantic Coast. A little background:
Currently, almost 87 percent of U.S. offshore areas are
closed to any kind of oil and natural gas exploration activity.
No other country with an active offshore program has limited exploration to this degree. Even though offcial moratoria
on offshore exploration expired in 2008, the federal government has not opened up any of these areas.
Soaring gasoline and higher energy prices overall convinced many policy leaders to investigate the possibility of
reopening the southeast Atlantic to some oil and gas exploration. The frst steps of that process include seismic research
and scheduling a lease sale. Wisely, the federal government
accepted permit applications for seismic surveys well over a
year ago, but federal approval is very slow in coming.
Decades ago, there were seismic surveys and some actual drilling off the Atlanticwith no environmental effects.
Technology has advanced greatly since then, so we are
likely to get a far more precise idea of the extent of oil and
natural gas deposits from seismic surveys conducted today.
However, the prospect of new surveys in the Atlantic has
ignited action by environmental groups, which have been
successful in getting many coastal communities to pass nonscience-based resolutions prohibiting such activity off their
shores.
The truth is that seismic surveys have been conducted in
the Atlantic for decades for basic ocean foor research and
educational purposes, without any negative effect on marine life. It is a safe and proven technology, but the groups
opposed to its use continue to repeat unsupported claims
of damage to marine mammals and fsh. The average consumer, no longer concerned with high gasoline prices, sits
silent on the sidelines while local political leaders hear only
from fringe environmental groups and respond accordingly.
If consumers were still paying more than $4.00 per gallon
of gasoline, the protests and rallies would be far more balanced.
The potential benefts of developing the Atlantic are numerous and far outweigh the potential risks. A study, conducted by Quest Offshore Inc., shows that offshore oil and
natural gas development in the Atlantic OCS could create
nearly 280,000 jobs, spur an additional $195 billion in new
private investment, contribute up to $24 billion per year to
the U.S. economy, generate $51 billion in new revenue for
the government, and add 1.3 million barrels of oil equiva14 SECTION A The Ocean/Marine Market BG 2016
lent per day to domestic energy production between 2017

and 2035.
Working with federal regulators, industry continues to reduce risk. Take for example the Gulf of Mexico, where tourism, fshing, clean beaches and clean water are all possible
and compatible with oil and gas exploration and development. The multieconomic benefts of energy, recreation and
tourism will be a boon to the Atlantic seaboard. And, in the
unlikely event of a spill, the industry has new equipment
and technology for containment and cleanup not available
even 10 years ago.
Opening the South Atlantic to oil and gas exploration
is part of a logical and long-term all-of-the-above energy
policy for the U.S. This policy should include renewables;
but the facts are that in 25 years, oil and natural gas will still
be a major part of our energy portfolio. We can be a part of
the energy solution or we can lapse back into dependence
on foreign sources of energy. I am convinced that most U.S.
citizens understand the need for a broad energy-producing
sector and support opening the Atlantic for oil and natural
gas exploration and production. Keeping U.S. oil and gas in
the ground will return us to being the bull led around by the
nose by other energy producing countries.
Technology, effciency and cooperation among all groups
interested in energy and economic development will make
a difference. There is still time for the success of the oil and
gas industry to yield rewards for consumers, industry and
the environment. ST

The Marine Advanced Technology Education

Center
Monterey, Calif.
The Marine Advanced Technology Education (MATE) Center
is a national partnership of educational and research institutions, employers and individuals concerned with the feld of
marine science and technology and the education of people
to work in that feld. Headquartered at Monterey Peninsula College in Monterey, California [See separate listing],
the MATE Center was established in September 1997 with
funding from the National Science Foundations Advanced
Technological Education (ATE) Program. As part of the ATE
initiative, two major goals of the MATE Center are to improve
science, math and technology education in the United States
and to improve and increase the nations technical workforce
through industry/education partnerships, both with an emphasis on the marine environment and marine-related occupations.
The MATE Center is coordinating and facilitating the development of programs in marine science and technology
involving grades 9 through 16 and graduate schools, with
an emphasis on community colleges. The center emphasizes
collaborations among educational institutions and industry, military, government, research and labor organizations.
These collaborations facilitate the development of courses
and educational programs based on occupational skill guidelines. This provides students with both academic and technical skills and knowledge.
The MATE Center is identifying marine science and technology workforce needs through both national and regional
surveys and through focused workshops with employers
and technicians that target specifc regions or occupations.
The MATE Center and its partner institutions have developed occupational guidelines for aquarists and shipboard,
hydrographic survey, marine research, aquaculture, oil spill
response, remotely operated vehicle and oceanographic
data processing technicians. Plans exist to target additional
occupations. The occupational guidelines, job descriptions
and advisory committees are then used to defne workplace
competencies. The competencies provide the framework to
align curriculum to meet workforce needs in these occupational areas.
The MATE Center offers two types of internship opportunities: paid internships that place students with the UniversityNational Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) feet of
research vessels and paid and unpaid internships that place
students in technical positions in marine industries. The
UNOLS internships provide participants with experiences
on board ships at sea, as well as at shore-based facilities.
Technical internships include positions in marine technology, marine and biological research, environmental monitoring, conservation, water quality, aquaculture, diving, marine

the lower and upper levels. Upper-division courses include
coastal environmental science, environmental geology and
marine environment. However, students also take a number
of courses in political science, international relations and
economics and complete a minor in these areas. Students
graduating in environmental studies are prepared for careers
in environmental policy or management, marine or environmental law or international business (especially on the Pacifc Rim), as well as graduate studies in social science areas
related to the sea.
At the graduate level, the University of San Diego offers
an M.S. degree in marine science. This degree is for students
with an undergraduate background in the natural sciences.
All students do research leading to a thesis. Many of the faculty and research scientists at the university are available as
thesis advisers, as are scientists at the Hubbs-Sea World Research Institute and the Southwest Fisheries Science Center.

Stockton University
Galloway, N.J.
Stockton University is located adjacent to the Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve (Mullica RiverGreat Bay Estuary) and is one of only a few undergraduate
institutions in the U.S. that offers a degree program in marine
science alongside a dedicated, easily accessible feld facility
(Stockton Nacote Creek Marine Science and Environmental
Field Station). With direct access to the feld station only 10
minutes away, the program is well situated to provide superior feld, teaching and undergraduate research opportunities
that form the backbone of the curriculum. Stocktons marine
science (MARS) program encompasses two general areas of
study: marine biology and oceanography.
Within each of these broad areas of study are several focus areas that students may choose as a function of their selected electives. Examples include marine geology, resource
management, estuarine ecology, and marine technology and
survey. A number of feld courses, laboratory courses, seminars, independent studies and research team opportunities
are offeredwith a strong emphasis on teaching in the feld.
The program is interdisciplinary and requires student competence in several areas of science. Upper-level students
have the opportunity to design and implement their own
independent study projects and are strongly encouraged to
present results at the NAMS Poster Day and at regional science conferences.
Students study the relevant original literature, identify
research problems, collect-analyze-synthesize data and interpret results in the light of previously published studies.
One of the major objectives of the MARS program is to demonstrate that undergraduate students can become actively
involved in research and make contributions to the feld.
All students in the marine science program must complete
the core requirements. Students must also complete the marine biology track requirements or the oceanography track
requirements. Then, in consultation with their preceptor, students select appropriate elective (cognate) courses to round
out their degree. These electives help to shape the students
experiences and tailor them toward more specifc areas of
study related to future career paths. Students have signifcant latitude to develop their own program of study within
their track, and the listed required courses are the minimum
requirements. The electives and the course sequence for
each student should be determined with the assistance of
individual preceptors. Elective courses can be chosen from
offerings in marine science, biology, chemistry, geology,
mathematics, applied physics, environmental science and
computational science. Students in other programs may earn
a minor in marine science.
Located on an eight-acre waterfront site in the Jacques

Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve, the Marine
Science and Environmental Field Station makes available
the facilities, research vessels, sampling equipment and staff
to provide Stockton students with hands-on learning experiences in a marine environment second to none. The feld
station offers several teaching and research laboratories and
offces, fve research vessels ranging in size from 16 to 28
feet, various marine sampling equipment, general-use laboratory equipment, state-of-the-art water sampling equipment
and numerous marine technology instruments including an
ROV, multibeam side scan sonar and mobile lidar system.
Undergraduate students engaged in marine science and marine science-related courses (biology, environmental science,
geology) access the facility regularly throughout their academic career. All students are encouraged to further utilize
the facility for independent study projects and carry out marine science research at the undergraduate level at Stockton
and at state and federal agencies and institutions nearby. The
feld station is also home to the Coastal Research Center, a
contract and grant-funded institute focused on research and
monitoring of New Jerseys coastal zone issues ranging from
beach access, inlet dynamics, and pre- and post-storm surveys of coastal municipal beaches.
Both the feld station and the Coastal Research Center provide part-time work and volunteer opportunities for MARS
students, as do numerous local agencies. Students may propose their own feld, laboratory or library research projects
to prospective faculty sponsors, and/or work on suitable internships. Student interns have been placed locally in feld
laboratory positions, including at the Adventure Aquarium,
Rutgers Field Stations (Tuckerton, Port Norris, Cape May),
Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve, New
Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife agencies, USFWS agencies, Brigantine Marine Mammal Stranding Center, and at
area shellfsh hatcheries. Through the Washington Internship
program, MARS majors have been placed at the National
Aquarium, NOAA, the National Academy of Sciences and
the Smithsonian Institute/Natural History Museum. Stockton
