General CRCP Program Description 2002-2009

NOAA's coral reef research and management efforts are realized primarily through its Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP). The program brings together the expertise of the offices working on coral reef issues in NOAA's National Ocean Service, National Marine Fisheries Service, Oceanic and Atmospheric Research, and National Environmental Satellite and Information Service. Through this program, NOAA partners with scientific, private, government, and nongovernmental organizations at the local, state, federal, and international levels to support effective management and sound science to preserve, sustain and restore valuable coral reef ecosystems.
