1st CSCOR Coral Reef Program Review Meeting
June, 10 – 12, 2003

Department of Marine Science
University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez; La Parguera, PR

Summary

The major goal of this meeting was to bring together the Lead Principal Investigator and Project Manager for each Coral Reef program so that they could collectively hear first-hand what their counterpart coral reef projects are doing. A second goal was to promote communication between projects so that individual projects can benefit from their collective successes and failures. A third goal was to inform the representatives from the projects of the ongoing revision of NOAA’s internal processes and grants management practices in order to facilitate their grant proposal writing, project implementation, and project reporting requirements. The CSCOR programs participating in the meeting were: Coral Reef Ecosystem Studies-Caribbean; Coral Reef Ecosystem Studies-Micronesia; Coral Reef Research for Hawaii’s Managers; the Hawaii Coral Reef Initiative Research Program; the National Coral Reef Institute; and the Puerto Rico Coral Reef Monitoring Program. The meeting participants consisted of only the Lead PI’s and the Project Managers of all CSCOR’s Coral Reef Program’s projects, as well as representatives from CSCOR and the Center for Coastal Monitoring and Assessment.
