Education
We have been working to “translate” scientific research funded by NPRB into forms suitable for other audiences.
NPRB Research at a Glance
Our "at-a-glance" summaries are appropriate as a "shoreline" of research for:
- Teachers and students of all ages and academic levels
- The public in Alaska and beyond, including tourists interested in marine mammals, seabirds, and the fishing industry
- Alaska residents, including Alaska Native communities, who depend on marine resources for subsistence or employment
- The scientific community of marine researchers
- Agencies responsible for managing North Pacific marine resources
Project Synopses
More than 70 NPRB-funded projects are now complete. These "at-a-glance" versions of NPRB-funded research tell you in just two pages about the substance and relevance of each project. Our goal is to provide a synopsis for each completed project. Synopses are organized by these research themes:
Plankton, Ocean Processes, and Lower Trophic Productivity | Go!
Fish Habitat | Go!
Fishes and Invertebrates | Go!
Marine Mammals | Go!
Seabirds | Go!
Humans | Go!
Ecosystem Studies | Go!
Contaminants | Go!
Research Summaries
Research Summaries are larger publications that "tell the story" of NPRB-funded research from 2002-present. Our goal is to publish a Research Summary for each of the above themes. Seabirds and Marine Mammals are now available; Fishes & Invertebrates is coming soon!
Seabirds
Beautiful booklet and photos summarizing seabird research 2002-2006. Please contact us for printed copies.
Marine Mammals
