"NOAA’s National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS) is announcing $6.7 million in fiscal year 2023 funding that will be spent on 18 coastal resilience research projects across the nation. “Coastal communities are on the front lines of climate change, and face challenges from sea level rise, coastal flooding and more frequent and intense storms,” said Rick Spinrad, Ph.D., NOAA Administrator. “These awards, including those funded through the Biden-Harris Administration's Inflation Reduction Act, are a key pillar of Bidenomics and will enhance NOAA’s efforts to help communities build economic and environmental resilience and develop solutions to a variety of coastal climate threats.”

Alexis Saint Germain's insight:
This is an article from NOAA about the recent approval by the Biden Admin. for sea level rise research funding. The $6.7M funding is being granted to several universities and other various research institutions. I wish we were one of those institutions chosen but those that were include:
Oregon State University and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory received ($500,000),
(IRA-funded) Oregon State University ($500,000),
(IRA-funded) University of Georgia, U.S. Geological Survey and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University ($500,000),
(IRA-funded) University of California, Irvine and University of Miami ($500,000),
(IRA-funded) George Mason University, The Nature Conservancy, Resources for the Future and Maryland Department of Natural Resources ($500,000),
University of Texas at Arlington and University of Arkansas ($500,000),
University of Rhode Island and Penn State University (over $360,000), & (IRA-funded) U.S. Geological Survey and University of California Santa Cruz ($324,000).
