OpportunityTitle: Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Gulf Coast CESU
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: This financial assistance opportunity is being issued under a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program.  CESU&#191;s are partnerships that provide research, technical assistance, and education.  Eligible recipients must be a participating partner of the Gulf Coast Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program.
Description: The National Wetlands Research Center (NWRC) of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research that advances the development of interferometric and polarimetic radar remote sensing techniques and their integration with optical remote sensing data for mapping and monitoring coastal ecosystems, particularly in response to man-made and natural disasters. Although this research is to focus on the northern Gulf of Mexico, the expected technology advances will have direct implications to global remote sensing of coastal resources.
