FUNDING HISTORY
Prior to 1990 my funding was primarily several large grants from the
Department of Energy and
the National Science Foundation. Over that period the total amount of
funding was
approximately $2.
6M.
In
the 90’s
my funding involved support for CCPO and personal efforts to develop
international
collaborative efforts with universities in Chile.
The Center was
been supported by a grant from
the Commonwealth at levels of ca $800,000 per year between 1
991 and 1995, and at the
$300,000 per year level since then.
In the late 90’s and early 2000’s I was supported by a
$2.5M Coastal Ocean Technology System
grant (earmark) initiative for the Virginia Coastal Ocean Observing System
. I also had a grant of
$
220,00 from ONR for work with VT and $169,999 for work with the Wallops
group.
Recently I have funding from NOAA via Rutgers to maintain the CODAR
sites in the lower Bay
and coastal Va. Also have funding from MMS and (DOE maybe) for offshore
wind research
.
See Current and Pending for up to date list.
