  1. Monitoring for Restoration Ocean Leadership 2012 Public Policy Forum The Science of Ocean, Coastal, and Great Lakes Restoration W. C. Boicourt University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science Horn Point Laboratory

  2. Monitoring • For a Purpose: Restoration • To track and adapt restoration efforts • To justify costs and show progress toward goal • Science crucial to the outcome • Efficiency and Effectiveness: do it smarter • Continual Information in the presence of short-term variability 2

  3. How do we do it? • Ensure science is integral component • Sentinel Measurements • Analysis • Provide continual assessment and updates even in a highly variable system • Exploit New Technology • Satellites • Robots • Models • Share the load 3

  4. Example: Dead Zone: 2010 N. Rabalais

  5. Fisheries

  6. Fisheries Richardson et al., 2009

  7. Dead Zone: Chesapeake Bay Dissolved Oxygen

  8. Example: Hurricanes RU-WRF Atmospheric Forecast Model

  9. Example: Oil Spill NOAA
